I Am

I'm not going to make you think more about this on New Year's Eve! So let me wish you all the best for 2026. And if you want to think about this sort of thing again then I am very happy to think about it with you.

NKI, it's probably good for me to think about it.  But yeah, today is a better day for an ice cream party!  I'll think about it again next year

I guess after my wonderful experience skiing, feeling so good about myself, it's not that surprising that I would have a backlash of crushing self-hatred and feelings of inadequacy. It's not like that has never happened before! Just have to ride it out and not take it too seriously.

Bach, I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing self-hatred. It's good to hear you have the insight to know that it's a backlash and that you aren't worthy of hatred. I know I've experienced backlash. Just being aware the cause of the feelings can help defuse from them. I hope you find some relief soon.

  can't say it better than hannah1, bach.  as we've said here many times, this, too, shall pass.  it's one of the few platitudes i believe in and am comfortable with, and i hope you are, too.  love and hugs
