The malevolent beast
I noticed something: Not only am I critical of myself, but I also criticize myself for being critical of myself. I then criticize myself for that criticism.
This cannot continue.

I've done the same thing. when people tell me I'm so beautiful, and then I look at myself and criticize, I feel bad and get criticial about that. or other things, like being outgoing, and yeah, I know.
now you know that that is being hypocritical.

Right. I look at other people who seem to allow themselves some mercy, and I conclude that I should do the same. But then I don't, and the beatings begin. hah. hah.
But anyway, just in case you haven't heard it today, you ARE beautiful.
Kelly--
True, I am hypocritical because my criticism comes from my desire to look better than I actually am. Combined with everything else, that would make me a hypercritical, hypocritical, autocritical, recritical cretin-face.
(Let me know if you want me to elaborate on the etymology of the word "cretin-face".)
I certainly do...
