What things do you tell yourself about yourself inside of your own head?

"Give up on being happy. It's just a distraction. If you do not succeed you will be wretched. If you fail you will not survive."

I tell myself that if the material world is all there is, then we live in a horror show
Yeah imagine all the immaterial horrors we could be experiencing instead

“I am a good person.”
My Catholic upbringing really ingrained in me the idea that I’m a fundamentally bad person. Turns out, even if you deconvert, those thought patterns will still plague you. So I have to remind myself often that just because I’m not Catholic or who my parents would like me to be, that doesn’t mean I’m doing anything wrong.

I'm not good, intelligent, interesting enough for anyone or anything.
Other people can be proud or confident. It'll just make me arrogant.
As a tall bald white man, I scare everyone.
I need to have more normal interests.
I want to do more things I like, regardless.
I still haven't made up for being a shitty kid/teenager, over 20 years later. Be more selfless.
Don't ask for things, especially help.
I could go on.

I'm not supposed to be here, but I am, so let's bring some happiness to others.
Genius. You are an amazing person.
Reminds me of a Kurt Vonnugut quote...."Hello babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. On the outside, babies, you've got a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies-"God damn it, you've got to be kind."

Not much of anything, good or bad, at least I don't think so. I've been on the float for some time.

“It’s gonna be okay?”
“It’s gonna be okay.”
“It’s gonna be okay!”
“Of course it will be okay, I’m the one who’s going to fix it!”
Awesome. Own that shit.

Deprogramming is a bitch of a thing to go through. Best of luck on your journey.

"I wanna go home."
I'm not sure why, this phrase has become a mental tic of mine. It makes abosolutely no sense because there is no sense in which I am not home. I live in one of my childhood houses.

42 here. In my teens and 20s I had depression, so I told myself horrible things like "I'm only worth anything to ppl bc of my art" and "everyone's worse off for having known me," but I don't think like that anymore. I've been trying to think for a few mins if I tell myself positive stuff now instead, but I don't think I do, I just stopped telling myself garbage.

Plot twist: you remember your "life between lives" Michael Newton's Journey of Souls-style, and miss that home

You did your best.
Your best was just not good enough.Be so for real right now, that wasn’t your best. You just tell yourself that so you can feel better. But you didn’t try, not as hard as you should or could have.
I’m pretty mean in here.
