You are literally telling a psychologist that you know better about how this works.
Also I’m not unhappy with myself, I love myself. I also know there are things I can do to improve and am seeking advice from my community to do so.
Your advice basically boils down to “just stop lol” which would not be helpful at all to anyone for anything.
I also specifically asked for resources, not your opinions, so do keep them to yourself in the future.
This seems unnecessarily hostile. I think your original comment makes a good point, as does the person replying to you. If you don’t want to be a part of a discussion, then fair enough, but this is an oddly judgemental comment to be making.
reality is hostile and unforgiving… it doesn’t care about your sentiments and wishes. it cares about your results.
true that most folks dont’ want to acknowledge that and want to live in a hugbox of sentiment and positive intentions and be told they are great as they are. but that’s not how we effect change in our lives… we simply have to go out of our comfort box and do it.
Is that really what you want, to be a part of perpetuating hostility? I legitimately don’t understand why the tone escalated so much: You said use screens less, someone replied to you with a few reasons why that might not be possible for some people, and in your reply to that, you just sort of blew up?
The reality is that most people are less patient than I am and will just downvote and move along. Maybe I should have too, but I thought that your original comment had the potential to seed an interesting discussion. I could say more here, but it’s not my job to convince you of the merits of not being an asshole in a world where that niche is already more than fulfilled. And who am I to talk, maybe negating discussion and getting downvotes are the results you want
ok, keep whining and making excuses for yourself i guess? jesus
if you are unhappy with yourself the only person who is going to fix it for you is you. but i guess you don’t really care.

If it really were as simple as you make it out to be, we wouldn’t be here now, would we? What an asshole.
