Ty, fwiw, I've suffered from the same issue my entire life.

Kim is really great for me in this regard. She gets me out of my head. Otherwise, I'm so hyper-critical of myself that it's paralyzing.

God knows I've got faults. Finding someone to help me work through them and make me a better man is my goal. - Mop (190 lbs) Mar 22, 10:11 1

This is why I tend to run to my immediate family. They have a lot of experience talking me off the ledge (figuratively // not like that) -- nm - ty97 Mar 22, 09:59 1
- Yeah, my family really helps me be in the moment as well. - David Mar 22, 10:00
