    take a step back each time you notice this. learning to notice this is always the first step. then you can start intentionally correcting yourself by working out what this looks like if you set that feeling aside.

    it's the same process you use to correct any belief and the same process that you use to change someone's pronouns or name.

      it really does work too. You don't need to be mad at yourself, just gently correct yourself when you catch it.

      once i started being gentle/mindful about correcting mistakes like that, i found it got a lot easier.

        yea being mad or blaming yourself will make other shit worse. this isn't about your worth as a human being, just making the world kinder for a bunch of people who really need it.
