Until I got into alanon I never understood perfectionism. I thought there was no way i was a perfectionist - if I were I would be a size 4 and my apartment would be clean. I didn't understand that it was about our expectations for ourselves.
I constantly have to be reminded to be gentle to myself.
I constantly have to remind myself to do things at my own pace. Every time I read the news online I click on a list of 10 ways to be more efficient. These lists are evil and counter productive.
You are right - sleeping or mediatAting are the best the things you can do when you are struggling.
Stay strong lady
