Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- I hold myself to a standard of basically never making mistakes, so every ordinary slip-up feels like a defect in me
- My head runs on a constant track of "I must get this right" and "I should never mess up," and the moment I fall short of one of those the self-attack is instant and brutal
- I flub one thing — a bad meeting, a clumsy text — and within seconds I’ve gone from "that went badly" to "I’m a failure," like the single slip becomes a verdict on the entire person I am.
- I keep telling myself I’ll finally feel enough once I lose the weight, hit the goal, get the approval
- When someone does one thoughtless thing I write them off entirely
Practices that may help
- Unconditional Self-Acceptance
Unconditional self-acceptance (USA), a cornerstone of Albert Ellis’s Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, means accepting yourself as a fallible human being regardless of performance or approval — not because you are special, but because rating the whole self on any single act is logically incoherent. The evidence is strongest for the clinical outcomes of REBT; the specific USA construct has solid theoretical and observational support. - Practice deliberate acceptance of human fallibility
