@samanthagoldby_pannell: Imagine hearing those words from someone else. It would feel harsh. Unacceptable. Maybe even cruel. But when it comes from your own thoughts it can feel normal. Automatic. Even deserved. That’s the inner critic. And it often uses the same language we’ve heard, absorbed, or turned against ourselves over time. But the truth is, just because a thought is loud doesn’t mean it’s kind. And it doesn’t mean it’s true. You are allowed to question that voice and slowly, learn to speak to yourself differently. #therapy #innercritic #therapist #mentalhealthmatters #MentalHealth
