That's okay hun.
You haven't offended me at all!!!!!!!
Sorry if i came off that way - i had just come off an 8 hour shift and i hadn't slept the previous day...sooo i was very very tired.
I think this stuff is so easy to say to someone else but so much harder to try and apply it to yourself. I've always found that myself.
I find the whole mirror, saying something good about yourself ten times sorta thing SOOOOOOO cringeworthy, but maybe it would help you? I don't blame you if you don't want to do it.
What i would like you to do though is to take a notebook/bit of paper and every day i want you to write down on that bit of paper something good about yourself, whether it's complimenting yourself or something you've acheived that day, a menial task you did really really well, anything, just make sure every day you take the time to look back and find something good.
There will be something, even if it's "i did the dishes even though i really couldn't be bothered".
You say you gave into the urges last night, i'm assuming that means s/i.
That doesn't mean you've failed. It doesn't make you a bad person.
Whatever was going on last night, whatever was going round in your head, you still coped with it, even if you needed to s/i to cope, you DID cope.
Don't beat yourself up about it.
