When something good comes your way, do you think, "This is too good to be true, so I might as well pre-empt the bad ending?"</p><p>Or do you think, "I don't deserve happiness," and so you go out your way to destroy it, whether consciously or not, so you can say, "See? I was right. I'm a bad person. I don't deserve good things."</p><p>That's the trauma speaking, not reality. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mentalhealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mentalhealth</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://steppingstonespsychology.com/blog-resources/complex-trauma-attachment-and-self-sabotage/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">steppingstonespsychology.com/b</span><span class="invisible">log-resources/complex-trauma-attachment-and-self-sabotage/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://rolandbal.com/self-sabotage/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">rolandbal.com/self-sabotage/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
