    i think the introduction of social media and being able to compare yourself to others all the time really fuels this. you think you're doing ok in life and then you see somebody else that has something you think you want, and then you start saying things like "i should have done this, I should be doing that" and that fuels this thinking

    Treavor, it's ok to reverse course and switch careers. I've done it several times and although it's tempting to believe we failed, we didn't. We just listened to our souls and that's the most bada$$ and honest kind of person to be. Please don't let modern society beat you down, we were never ever meant to live like the caged animals that we are today ❤

    This guy needs to resolve his own issues of poor self image and self hatred before he attempts to coach other people. He keeps repeating "I don't really know" over and over again when asked the core question of why he doesn't like himself. If he can't look at his own past and make any kind of connection between trauma and how it formed his self image, he has no business trying to guide other people's lives.

    Being single I found confident in me. Every time I remember the past makes me feel bad how my life was pain. Feeling guilt and shame of being this and that.. The bossy coworkers. The mean friends in the school the gashlighting family. And the cheater husbands.. Extra just insane and why in the world every one put you down for no reason?

    This guy is blocked. When Dr. John starts asking him about where his internal self-denigrating narrative... "I don't really know" is all he can say, over and over.
    It's like, he doesn't want to psychoanalyze his upbringing and yet that's where all this is rooted, 100% of the time. I.E. perhaps Trevor's dad wasn't there in some serious way, perhaps his mom was an emotional trainwreck who probably didn't want her kids.

    Your dad was a lousy parent .. not a good guy
    That’s what your body is telling you

      That is the defectiveness schema that comes from negligent/inattentive parents:
      Other resulting
      Pattern patterns/ behaviors are as follows:
      Avoid conflict
      Emotional repression or being disconnected from your emotions
      poor at giving or withholding
      avoid empathy
      Low level entitlement
      Social anxiety
      Patterns of worry/ anxiety
      Irritation
      lack of beliefs
      repressed needs
      defectiveness schema
      Emotional distancing
      instability and inconsistency rigidity
      addiction
      hyper independence
      emotional neglect of self or others
      controlling of environment/ space
      lack of expression
      dismissive Of others.
      When children do not get the love, care, and physical presence that they need, they internalize it and believe that they are broken. Your parent may have been uninvolved because they were just busy working. But to a child, the reason doesn't change the reality.
      This of course, means that you have an insecure attachment style (fearful avoidant, anxious preoccupied, or dismissive avoidant).
      Look into subconscious reprograming To reprogram Your base operating system. You can reprogram those wounds of being unloved unworthy, not safe, unseen, not valued, worthy, etc. You can heal and finally be able to love yourself.
      I don't even know how the hell I found it. I found the personal development school with Thais Gibson. Her work guarantees a breakthrough within thirty days or something. It is 67 bucks a month. I just paid for a month and then downloaded all of the workbooks and videos. It took 1 week for me to remove that defectiveness feeling I lived with for 38 years. Honestly, I didn't even finish the course😂😂😂. I half ass did the exercise book and fundamentally changed my life.
      Once I understood that Because of the programming that I received as a child, I acted a certain way. I wasn't broken. I was functioning as designed. The problem is that the design wasn't great. I called it trauma bingo because When I saw the chart with all of those behaviors listed everything described me. I then realized that I could Change the programming and that would result in different behaviors.
      I woke up 1 day and decided that I loved myself. One year later, I'd lost 100 pounds without exercise. I stopped drinking alcohol and started fasting. Healed my relationship my with my mother (only worked because she did her work too). My life completely changed.
      I fundamentally changed my life with 1 week of a half completed course. It was so effing easy, I legitimately get infuriated because I suffered for so long and this was out there and no one talked about it. Hence the reason, why I've written a damn novel in TH-cam thread. I just want to share. It didn't take 5 years of therapy!
