Self-love: a trip to find yourself.

You're like a shaped diamond, formed of different facets. And every angle of this precious stone will reflect your life in different ways, but always your way. Taking in consideration all your angles, you'll have to stop trying to please everyone and give up searching your self-esteem on the eyes of people around you. It doesn't mean you'll be as a shell, closed in your own world. But don't trick yourself thinking the others don't have importance while building your self-esteem/happiness. The others, as society, will always be part of your life. Everything you are and became was shaped based on relationships. Not taking responsibility for others people fantasy about you doesn't mean it stops existing or it's less important in the way you perceive yourself and how you behave. It's exactly the opposite. The society that raises and cares for you is the same that hurts and neutralizes you. This text was written by Marcos Lacerda, a psychologist and YouTuber from Brazil. As far as I know, it's available only in Portuguese. I translated the best way I could. Para quem tiver interesse o livro é Amar-se: uma viagem em busca de si mesmo.

Remember who you are

All empaths know who they are. And those who know who you are will now be afraid of you and try to shy you away from this truth, but don't listen to them, don't listen to me. Listen to your heart. Cheesy things like this used to be cute to you, and now because of narcissists they took that magic...

Do you ever…

Just look at pictures of yourself when you were young, and break down crying? Do you ever just want to go back and find yourself and say, it’s ok, you don’t deserve the hurt you’re enduring. You deserve love and I’m sorry you never got it. Do you ever just want to be who you needed when you were...

Narcissist vs Empath

When is enough enough? It's in our blood to take care of our family / mom. But how much abuse should someone take from their mom before they have had enough and throw her out on the street? Is it the child's job to support the mom even if she has a job sold a house and is on social security. ...

It's better to receive appreciations and compliments from strangers than from the people we love that tirelessly give us pain and heartaches.

Are kinks linked to psychological things

I heard certain kinks could be linked to different mental illnesses or psychological meanings. Curious on what that really means your personal interpretations of this is. I truly don't know, I just thought it was an interesting topic.

Snitches get stitches, but do they really?

The reason narcissists don't like a snitch is because then people figure out their reputation. It goes around enough makes all the empaths scared and they try to make them stay in their lane while the narcissist goes behind your back to do the evil they want to do.

Narcissists and empaths.

personal experience and information that gets around is like a puzzle and if you know how the pieces fit together then you have figured it out yourself and don't need to go to a class when you have personal experience and multiple videos about narcissists talking about narcissists.
