Many neurotics tend to devalue their achievements. This, among other things, slows down their work with their condition. Depreciation can go in different directions. Let's take a closer look at each.1. Speed ​​of work. A neurotic person strives to cope with his condition as quickly as possible, to get rid of symptoms and anxiety. He demands quick results from himself, and when he doesn’t get them, he considers himself not diligent enough. As a result, the desire to get results as quickly as possible leads to the fact that a person begins to worry even more. 2. Devaluation of results. In my work, I often see that a person has achieved a decent result, but still believes that he did not try hard enough and could have achieved even more. “If there were big successes, then yes, we could be proud, but small ones are nothing to worry about.” The problem is that big successes come from small ones and a person does not pay attention to the dynamics as a whole. He sees that he is changing little by little and completely ignores that, compared with what he was at the beginning, he has changed significantly. 3. Devaluation of the goal Sometimes a goal is so global that it is easier for a person to devalue it and not achieve it. Although in fact he really wants it to be so. This comes from internal self-doubt and self-doubt. The person doubts that he is even capable of achieving such a result, and it is painful for him to face his powerlessness. After all, if he tries and fails, it will prove that he is a failure. Thus, a person gives up an essential part of life, depriving himself of experience. Depriving himself, including evidence to the contrary, evidence that he actually can. As a result, he continues to spin with his belief that he is incapable. 4. Devaluation of other people A person, seeing how others are doing, begins to devalue their results. “Yes, her parents helped her with this,” “Yes, she is a fraudster,” “You cannot achieve such success with honest work,” “Yes, she did not have any neurosis, she cannot understand me and my experiences.” Often in the comments under my articles I see people writing that how can I give recommendations on working with neurosis, with panic attacks, if I myself have not had such experience. People get burned especially often when I write about enduring discomfort and going into a panic attack. Well, I have personal experience, and I did it myself. I managed to cope with panic attacks, go through the discomfort and get results. But it’s easier for people to devalue my results than to try and get their own (don’t forget to undergo all medical examinations before following my recommendations). Well, what to do with each type of depreciation? 1. Allow yourself your own pace. Each person is an individual, he has his own set of characteristics. If we take the context of neuroses, then everyone has their own individual neurosis. It varies in duration, severity, strength of attitudes, rigidity of behavior, your personal desire to open up to new experiences, etc. Naturally, the speed of obtaining results in a person who has felt normal all his life and suddenly has a panic attack will differ from a person who has already had OCD since childhood, has strict rules and is afraid of new experiences. 2. Accepting the results They usually say: “don’t compare yourself with other people, you have different parameters, compare yourself with yourself in the past.” But in fact, this is just as bad advice. Many neurotics in the past had much greater results than they have today. As a result, comparing themselves with the past, they are even more convinced of how bad everything is today. You need to be able to accept yourself with your results, even the most minimal ones, and act based on today's results. What does this mean? It's about behavior strategies. Let's say you have a strategy that everyone likes. She worked at your last job and you were getting good results. At a new job.
