I have a real problem with this, and it's my downfall. Its like i've got a mini Simon Cowell in my head! I always have to prove myself to me, in every little thing I do. I can't take it forever.

I know exactly what you mean. My inner critic is relentlessly difficult to deal with and is my downfall as well. The hard part is trying to silence your self-criticisms, which I have yet to fully do.

I feel like this too. Evem when I say positive stuff about myself, I can't help but say in my head..."It's not true".

I do as well. My inner critic is adept at battering down any and all attempts to prove to myself that I'm actually not that bad a person :(
