Whats the most beneficial support that people (you) have received for their mental health? 

I have no idea what will help me recover and i have done alot of research, i am scared that even support from the CMHT will not help.

What self compassion do people (you) say to themselves to help with self-esteem?

I find self compassion very hard as i hate myself so much that it feels hard to positively talk to myself and i have no clue what to tell myself.

Has anyone actually started to identify their own emotions within themselves, and has this helped with regulating emotions or helps with not suppressing emotions?

  • Whats the most beneficial support that people have received for their mental health?

    I don't know what the most beneficial support people received for mental health, because that's a personal thing between people and their mental health provider. Why would I have sensitive information that pertains to that?

    What self compassion do people say to themselves to help with self-esteem?

    If people had self compassion, they would not need help with their self esteem. I think that people bully themselves a lot in their mind (in other words, they are highly critical and judgemental of themselves). And it depends on whether or not that person is motivated by criticism. I mean some people grow when they are criticised and rise up to the challenge, while others shrink into depression. I think that people who fall into anxiety and depression when dealing with criticism should remember what they can do, and if they can't do something, it does not mean they'll never be able to do it, it just takes time. 

    Has anyone actually started to identify their own emotions within themselves, and has this helped with regulating emotions or helps with not suppressing emotions?

    I think that if people become aware of their own emotions during a stressful situation, it would be good because it'll minimize conflict. But if someone has a fear or trauma, and they have suppressed emotions as a way of coping with it, then trying to identify those emotions might be difficult, and facing their trauma might just re-traumatize them. I guess it's important to allow people to face things when they feel ready to face them, and that they make sure that they have the right supports in place for facing them. 

  • So do you use self compassion or not, or are you just going to having an overall thought of what everyone is going through??
