Lesson VIII: Fight In The Shade
I honestly have purged about 95% of the automatic negative thoughts that would pop into by mind. I worked with a lot of them in my youth, usually in my father's voice, telling me not to be a "playbaby" or "puny". They gradually went away, but would resurface from time to time, in my voice. I for a long time believed I was completely "unloveable", but have outgrown that romantic notion, understanding now, that love is a two way street, and your unrequited love will get you nowhere if they don't have some feelings as well. You also have to have a passing love with yourself.
