Projection!! This year I am setting an even stronger intention to notice my own defense mechanisms. Even the defense mechanisms of those closest to me. Have you ever projected before? As someone projected onto you? What do you do in these situations? 🤔

“You’re perfect just the way you are” Simultaneously, no one is perfect. LOL! Being a survivor of emotional abuse and relationships that have challenged by self esteem, perfection was always a difficult topic to grapple with.
I had to realize that everyone makes mistakes. Even the people that look like they have everything together, have flaws! Flaws make us human but they do not make you unworthy!!! There’s nothing “wrong” with you. I have to remind myself of these things daily. It’s difficult. Sometimes I want to implode due to the pressure of perfection that has been passed down to me. Everyday is a new chance to release the shackles of perfection!!

To be human is to make mistakes. Broken not broken. Whatever. We’re HUMAN.                                              ...

Y’all. It must’ve been about 3 to 4 years ago. When I realized I struggled with self-worth. I had accepted the challenge of “building“ my self-worth up when I recently discovered that it’s not that I don’t have self-worth & I need to gain it from somewhere, it’s the fear that I am unworthy, that is the problem not that I have to build up self-worth 🙄🤯 Now with this frame I have more power. Moving forward now my insecurity is separate from me. Not a part of me. Damn, the base of so many things is really fear.

Too many of us are in denial about our state of mind and wonder why we cannot over come mental illness.

These are just SOME symptoms of bipolar disorder. Self care is IMPERATIVE to managing these symptoms. For me, taking my medicine is a form of self care. My ego does not like taking medicine. I want to believe that I can handle everything on my own. Some people diagnosed with bipolar do NOT take medication and can manage they’re symptoms on their own. Do you experience some of these symptoms?

Thank you .co for encouraging me to provide a deeper explanation on bipolar disorder!
I was diagnosed last year and it has been an incredible journey ever since. I was hospitalized twice within two months and the diagnosis saved me life. I am on medication and use self care to manage symptoms. Does anyone you know or love have bipolar disorder? Do you? What’s that experience like?

I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder last year. It honestly hit me like a bus. I haven’t always felt the symptoms. I feel like they emerged between ages 26-28. I was hospitalized twice between September and October. I was feeling suicidal and out of control. The diagnosis saved my life. I am on medication! And use self care habits such as: journaling, exercise, and painting/writing to soothe the mood swings! Anyone live with bipolar disorder here? 👋🏾👀💕.

Posting this because I’m not feeling my best.

Social media is often flooded with our BEST moments.
I could pick at myself right now like I have been and beat myself up about what I’m not. Or be encouraged about what I AM.
I encourage more self love and compassion today. For myself and for others.

I judgement made toward someone else is a judgement toward myself and vice versa.

No, Im feeling A1 today. And today is when I give myself the MOST love.

Have you evaluated your own narcissistic traits?! Yes, those with pathological narcissism are labeled “unhealthy” but if you look at the spectrum of narcissism we can find them in all of us. The next level of studying narcissism is discovering your own traits. The traits that are deemed unhealthy are how we protect ourselves. These defense mechanisms stem from deep seated trauma.
I recently discovered that I can be very entitled and often self absorbed. Obviously not on purpose! My entitlement stems from me feeling victim to past trauma and feeling like I deserve a break. Self absorption, stems from me feeling broken, invalidated, and lost as a child. In order to protect myself from these things as an adult I dive deep into my thoughts, feelings, and needs, which can feel like I’m conceited to others. NOT MY INTENTION. what are yours? 👀

Narcissism can be healthy? Yes. It can. Freud argued that narcissism is a natural part of the human make up. Our egos strive daily to protect us. Healthy narcissism includes: High self-regard & independence.

Many of you began following me when I reviewed the topic of narcissism and my experience with people who had narcissistic traits and even people I believed to have NPD. Since 2021 I have heard the term “narcissism” and “narcissist” to describe many people a little too freely. I had to catch myself as well. I was labeling people for behaviors that may have been uncomfortable and intolerable for me but, not necessarily narcissistic. I empathize heavily with victims of narcissistic abuse but often I find that there is a fascination with narcissists behaviors that arrests the growth of the victim. We give “narcissists” WAY TOO MUCH POWER! Also, have you ever sat to think that we ALL exhibit traits of narcissism and some traits may be healthy and completely normal? Or study what within yourself needs to heal to stop distracting yourself with “why” the narcissist are doing what they are doing.

Okay y’all. This is a MENTAL HEALTH CHECK IN. I wanted to share why I’ve been MIA and how I’m feeling about podcasting and this platform. Thank you to all of you who have liked, shared, commented, and sent me words of encouragement!! ✨ this year I am integrating all of the pieces of myself that were broken last year. Don’t be scared to be seen. Don’t be scared to be yourself. I want to transition from this life knowing that I was unapologetically myself! 😤. THANK Y’ALL. MORE TO COME.

Sometimes yes, you can go around a situation and avoid. But often, we’re in the middle of situation and drown in negative emotions. Keep pushing through the toughest moments. Don’t stay there. (Talking to myself)

Are you Black & unmasking for the first time?? You feel like you have a few extra masks to shed compared to non Black POC? Like the mask of Black women being the saviors/go-to? The mask of a Black man being “tough?”?
What have you noticed as you unmask?
