Thanks for sharing. And yeah I have two negative “voices” in my head: one is protective like yours and the negative things I heard throughout my life. The protective one needs to be convinced, because all she really wants to know is that I’m not going to find myself in a bad situation unprepared and surprised. The other one isn’t so easy, it needs correction: “no that criticism was valid, that’s why I resolved it.” “No, that criticism wasn’t valid, because X” “shut up I’m working on it at a reasonable pace” “just because trauma doesn’t mean the same will happen again”
