My Brain Is A Bully

Stop Telling Me I’m A Loser

I’m generally a pretty confident person. I know what I have to offer this world.

But all it takes is one negative comment or one failure for my brain to sneak in and tell me how awful I am.

I just started trying to write for a living. I have many compliments and five star reviews. Many “claps” and comments about how much people like my work.

But then one comment, not even negative, just not positive, sends my mind into an infinite loop of self doubt.

In general, I don’t care what people think about me. Maybe it’s because I don’t think there is much to dislike about me.

I have a kind soul and try not to make waves. I never intend to hurt people.

But I don’t take criticism well. Especially if I am trying my best.

I don’t take compliments well either, though. Surly people can’t mean that. They can’t possibly think I’m amazing. They are just saying that.

I need my brain to get with the program. It’s like I have two sides: I’m amazing or I’m a total loser and a failure.

Pick a side brain. Let’s preferably stick with the more positive side. Stop telling me I’m a loser when I am clearly NOT.

If an actual human was telling me these things (and nobody ever has), I’d tell them to f*ck off.

So, why brain, do I let you speak to me like that?

Just f*ck off brain. You’re wrong.
