Only just got round to watching this video. It’s great obviously, nothing from you isn’t great Dan. So my current strategy is very simple, I get triggered, I feel a few symptoms etc but I dont think past there. I don’t question why I’ve been triggered or what ‘I’ve done wrong’ i just carry on what I’m doing but focus on reassuring ‘myself’ that I’m safe/capable/etc etc. Keeping it simple- less knowledge is helpful x
Great video Dan, as always, thank you for that. I find it key to be kind to ourselves, in order to keep a strategy going, as you said. It can be a longtime work to understand why we're not kind to ourself and to change our habits of how we talk to ourself in our mind and to react. And only then, it starts to be more easy to be consistent in our strategy. Growing up, adults, teachers, parents...too often tell us what to do, to obey, and we often obey only not to be punished. That's what I did anyway 🙂. We don't learn enough to do things for us and for the greater good, in order for us and others to function well. It's always about "what am I going to get if I do this ?" or "What trouble am I going to avoid from the outside world by not doing this ?". Us and the rest of the world are the same, and what we do for us benefits for other in a more or less direct way. It's just that kindness we need to have for us as well as for others. Thinking that we're all connected, helped me be more kind to myself, that's why I'm sharing this. It helped me erase that old fear of punishment, and not feel selfish when I'm kind to myself. Because I always felt that all my actions are connected to the outside world, and "only thinking about me" always felt not right, like a piece of the puzzle was missing. So now I can "only think about me" sometimes, when I need it, because I know that "me" is always deep down a part of "us".
This is a great video. I recently have entered a flare, and admittedly my mindset has gotten a bit skewed. I’ve found myself questioning why this is happening and if my recovery strategies are “good enough”. How can I move forward? I know first to accept the emotions I’m feeling towards the flare, which has helped greatly. I think I need to get out of the mindset of a quick fix as well
A very good and interesting video. I'm gonna try to take the challenge (I know what you're gonna say: there is no try, either do or do not).
