This writing is directed towards people that are suffering from self-destruction. Now if you don’t have this problem I recommend you still read, either to prevent it from happening to you, help someone you know it is happening to, or just for the information. In this writing I will talk about what self destruction means, how to undo it, and someone you need to be honest to. What do I mean when I say self-destruction? Some of you may understand others may not, but allow me to define it anyway. Self-destruction is the act of beating yourself up, hating yourself, and being the thing that holds you back in this beautiful life. I will refer to this as SD for the rest of the writing. SD is not good, it makes people dislike themselves, it makes people beat themselves up on a level that’s not good, and will likely be a symptom or cause of depression. That’s why it’s important not to do. You will ruin your own chances in life by telling yourself false things like, “you can’t don’t even try.” It’s evil and Prevents you from possibly doing wonderful things, or turning your life around. Once this happens though, there’s a problem, you’ve entered a circle. This means that once you start it’s hard to stop. In your SD you will think of leaving this terrible circle, and then will be more vile to yourself for getting into this circle, which is why it doesn’t end. Then how do you end it? While it is hard to end it there are ways to cause cracks in this horrid circle allowing you to make that great escape. First you must tell your brain to chill. I’ve said this since my earliest writings, your brain is a tool don’t let it use you. You must tell your brain that you are in charge, that you are it’s master and controller. After that is where it’s easier said than done. You must understand yourself and your capabilities. You need to not just tell your brain that you control it, but tell it what you can do with it. It’s actually not a master servant relationship, you need your brain to do anything and everything. You must show it what you can achieve together, you need to look in the mirror and tell yourself, what it is you exactly are, your strengths, and you flaws, what you are capable of and incapable of, the incapable list is short I can tell you that right now, you can do almost everything. Now the hard part is when you are self destructive talking about your strengths is hard and talking about your flaws is easy. It’s more balanced than you think it is, don’t trick yourself into thinking that you have more flaws than strengths, this requires something. Honesty. At the beginning I said someone you need to be honest to. This person you need to be honest to is someone you can only find in the mirror. It is extremely important to be honest with yourself whether you are self destructive or not is. You must always be honest with yourself, never just say I can’t, and never just say I can. The first one will keep you from going forward, the second will help you get injured. There are times in life where yes, you just need to take a leap of faith, but you need to get some cushion set up at the bottom of your leap. You need to think for at least one minute before you make important decisions, don’t doubt yourself, and don’t be arrogant. Be honest with yourself. If someone told me I can’t throw a card behind my back and catch it, I will prove them wrong. If someone tells me to do a backflip I’m not going to do it because literally can’t, and will most likely injure myself if I try. Be honest with yourself, not rude, not to nice, but honest. Find friends that are the same, honest with you, doesn’t fawn over you, and doesn’t hate on you, but honest. At this point I could name a writing honest and write three paragraphs about that, so if that happens you heard it hear first haha. With all of that said, if you are self destructive, I can only wish that this helped you change that. If you are not self destructive I hope this helped you understand it, and if you know, or ever meet someone who has this problem, you may be able to help them, even if it’s just a little bit because you should now understand what self destruction is, how to get out of it, and the importance of honesty when it affects you. With all of this said, this writing was meant to help, so I hope it did, I wish you all happy holidays, and if you don’t celebrate anything, happy days. Peace. Original
