Sometimes, although I understand how irrational it is, I punish myself by not eating when I have become upset by people with whom I interact.
Have you ever, or would you ever, punish yourself in such a way?
Can bringing attention to a need for all be compared to punishing yourself ?
I used to be annoyed at myself and occasionally still am, but mostly now I've learnt to take it easy on myself and think of solutions.
Oddly taking it easy on myself happened for me at the same time I relaxed more with other peoples screw ups, and realised we are all fuck-ups really
Now i see what I used to consider faults in people as cute, or just part of who they are.
