i substitute and watch friendly reminders by dude taking scenic routes. instead of changing things i really stuggle with, like getting back in psychotherapy. as if self-help ever worked for people who can't help themselves) if self diagnosis would be legit I'd say I'm AuDHD, but officially i have recurrent depression for now, so it's hard mode either way. writing this comment took me about an hour.

My expirence has been knowing it's presence, and continuing to live in the same way expecting something different to happen. This was the case for quite some time, but in the last few months I've been attempting to understand it. With this I feel that I have learned a lot about myself, especially the nature of my insecurities; the root cause of it all. I have had to relinquish myself of coping habits, and many other things. The result is of this work has brought me to a good place, somewhere I didn't believe i'd find myself. My understanding of self has given me a lens in which to expand in a more positive way (in that of though and action). I feel it will be a life long journey, but I'm excited to see where it will take me

Do not try to stop the thought patterns, just observe them. Trying to stop them makes them more real. That's the worst thing you can do - to go to war with yourself !

A good response to a negative inner judgement might be "Yeah I hear you, but I think you're wrong" Accknowledging that it's there and disagreeing with it. Ascending it, in a way. Vulnerability and bravery are the two keys I've found most helpful with this. And patience. Sigh! Always patience.

yes agreed, that was a really glossed-over point he missed. Resisting the negative thoughts will only make them more persistent. You need to just accept them arising and let them show up and then leave by themselves, which they will if you just are like 'meh, negative thoughts'. We can easily choose not to freak out about the presence of negative thoughts and rather just accept them as a normal part of life. Resisting them gives them power. Resisting anything gives it power, over you. So don't sit there like he is and say 'no, no go away' to the negative thoughts... just listen to whatever they have to teach you and let them go by themselves.

I also like to fact check. example: "my body feels anxious but its not assigned to anything."

I would suggest that food is the worst form of self-sabotage since it so accepted and encouraged and we do have to eat. No plug in the jug for us

The cinematography! Wow. WOW. Makes me want to get out there and just be in nature.

Two things. Personally (and this has worked for me, but might not be for everyone) daily meditation has really helped me bat those self sabotaging negative thoughts into the weeds… they’re still there, but they’re a long way away. These things take time, but 10-15 mins a day has made a huge difference to my outlook. Secondly… this channel is truly a wonderful place to be. Thank you Justin for your time and honesty. It’s refreshing.

I'm so glad I found your channel, Justin. thanks for the inspiring and beautiful videos!

As someone who has a phd in self sabotage, I really appreciate this message. What is so powerful about your video is not just the aesthetic, inspired creative, but the value and accessibility you create in very heavy topics. Thank you for this art. Truly. One thing I respectfully disagree with is the "fear of failure." I always thought for the longest is was that, but the more I've unpacked that notion, the more I've realized that it's really "fear of success" that is the scariest thing when in self-sabotage mode. Failing is a symptom of sabotage, but success is terrifying because we must face our saboteur, and step into our own light, feel that we deserve it, and that is the most terrifying thing of all. It's the quote by Marianne Williamson "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us." Thank you again for fighting your saboteur or any resistance to create something so beautiful, meaningful, and magical. 🪄

Another amazing video man. But I truly believe that alcohol helped me partly overcoming my insecurities since "it made them go away" and showed me what could be possible if I wasnt sabotaging myself and reflect on my inner mind. And that reflection helped me to make a change and get out of comfort zone on purpose. Of course that differs from person to person and alcohol is a dangerous drug that can easily ruin many thing about yourself and your life, but its just my thought, everybody's different.
