Dr. Phil's term "damaged truth" is a component of CPTSD (childhood or complex PTSD). The Crappy Childhood Fairy YT channel is an EXCELLENT resource. So helpful.
I completely agree with him about changing the what instead of dwelling on the why. And yes, people do need to develop insight into their “ payoff” as he said. Aye, there’s the rub. I have noticed that people are willing to take all the negative consequences of a bad behavior. If they would just stop for a minute and analyze what they are having to deal with in their life that’s negative as a direct consequence of their behavior, they might stop. But most people don’t even bother to even look at that in my experience. They just hurdle through life hurting themselves and others with their bad behavior. Mostly they hurt themselves. And it can be in subtle ways it’s not sometimes is obvious as a drug addiction. It could be a passive aggressive streak that you were injuring other people around you and they recoiled from you. That’s just an example.
Exploiting people at their lowest points for money and fame*
Try to never compare your insides to other people’s outsides. You do not know what wars are going on down there where the spirit meets the bone
