@privateger honestly yeah
i am being hypocritical by agreeing while also doing so myself, but during less stable times of my life i used self deprecation for self harm, specifically because it is a long-acting poison
even if you’re “only” thinking it your brain processes it enough to be reinforced if done often enough

imo that doesn’t mean self deprecation should never be done, but definitely not regularly for your own sanity and especially avoided among other people for their sanity

anyways it’s something i’m trying to unlearn, mostly to harm others less
and it’s fucking hard to get rid of when you already trained your mind on it
