Okay, really yesterday was Day 2, but I only finished the Day 2 exercises today. Honestly, my inner voice is there - telling me what a loser I am for not finishing everything on time, but after so many decades of listening that bastard of a voice, I'm finally at the point where I can tell it to fuck off. The "drill serjeant."
And here is the other inner voice telling me I should edit what I say (especially the curse words) so I don't offend people. The "people pleaser."
The "me, but not me" voices are going to difficult to deal with, but at least I'm aware of them. I suspect that it's the voices I don't even realize are there that are going to be a real bitch. I know where my past trauma and current stressors come from (or at least I think I do), but how to deal with them is where I'm still completely at a loss.
Still plugging away, though!
