The Myth of the Self Destructive Person: Nothing you've done to cope has been self-destruction. It has all been self-preservation.


Overview

The Myth of the Self-Destructive Person You are not broken. You are under-supported, overwhelmed, and doing your best to survive.Have you ever looked at your own behavior and wondered, ""What's wrong with me?"" Why you repeat the same patterns... reach for the same escapes... shut down when you promised yourself you wouldn't? This book delivers a radical and life-changing truth: Nothing you do to cope is self-destruction. It is self-preservation. The Myth of the Self Destructiv... Every pattern you judge... every habit you hate... every moment you numb, avoid, retreat, or escape - none of it comes from weakness, failure, or a lack of discipline. It comes from a nervous system carrying more than it was ever meant to hold. You are not sabotaging your life. You are surviving without the support, safety, nourishment, and co-regulation you always deserved. ✨ What This Book RevealsInside these pages, you'll discover: - Why ""self-destructive"" behaviors are actually intelligent biological adaptationsYour nervous system reaches for relief because it's overwhelmed, not because you're flawed.

The Myth of the Self Destructiv... - How emotional malnutrition creates adult patterns that look like addictionYou learned to function without safety, attunement, warmth, co-regulation, or rest - and your system has been starving ever since. The Myth of the Self Destructiv... - Why you repeat the same cycles even when you want to changeYou don't repeat what you love - you repeat what regulates you. Relief becomes routine because it works. The Myth of the Self Destructiv... - The truth about loneliness and why it fuels escapeYou don't numb because life is painful - you numb because you've been carrying life alone. Loneliness is the engine beneath overwhelm, shame, shutdown, and every form of escape. The Myth of the Self Destructiv... - How exhaustion becomes the final barrier between you and yourselfYou aren't tired because you're lazy - you're tired because you've been self-parenting your entire life. Unfelt emotion becomes fatigue. Unshared burden becomes burnout. The Myth of the Self Destructiv...
