@ChampagneOnIce Don't stop there! 😊

When I was younger I didn’t realize dating dysfunctional people, regardless of my justifications at the time, was seriously holding me back from health, happiness and achieving my goals.
@WhateverWorks

I did that once and oh my God!! I'd mention that as my time of being my own worst enemy too...
LeeInTheNorthWoods · 70-79, F
Shortly after the death of my dear Hubby. He seemed to keep me sane and responsible. Now. . . oh geez!
@LeeInTheNorthWoods

Hugs... so sorry to hear it... It can be very painful to loae one's soulmate.... 🤗🤗🌹

13 years ago when I felt I was to blame
@SW-User

The most destructive feeling is guilty feeling and self blaming... Im so sorry.... 🤗🤗
LeeInTheNorthWoods · 70-79, F
@Soossie I'm so sorry you feel that way. I hope you've been able to move forward. ❤️❤️❤️
@LeeInTheNorthWoods

Thank you ki d lady.... ❤

I used to be my worst enemy when I kept abandoning myself for various reasons. It was a survival defense mechanism that started in my childhood and turned into a saboteur energy when I became an adult.
But I'm no longer my worst enemy. I don't have any enemies actually. I no longer abandon myself the way I used to and at times if I slip, I can quickly check myself.
@SW-User

Im very glad to see you standing strong for you... 🤗🤗🌹

@Miklee02

Love you sweetie.... please look after yourself and your heart ... you mean a lot to most of us... 🤗🤗🌹❤
Miklee02 · 51-55, F
@Soossie thank you 😊
When I could no longer trust my eyes or ears.
@DarkHeaven

Uh!! I thought after he asked you the question, you came back to yourself and stopped yourself from doing it.... anyway I believe that it was a blessing and a gift from God to both of you that he woke up...
@Soossie I remember him saying it but I still felt like I was fighting for my life. It didn’t impact me until later.
@DarkHeaven

Uph!!!! I hate to imagin you in that situation...

jehova · 31-35, M
somewhere between age 25-27 when I got back from a trip to I think
Belarus, I shot myself in the head after being handed a gun. and I would say that was the worst decision of my life. I was my own worst enemy in that moment
jehova · 31-35, M
@Soossie I do not fear death thus I accept it so completely it will never come. But my sibling asked what I had done while in Belarus and my sibling's buddy had brought the revolver he had with him. I said let me see that gun, but never hand me it. If you do I'll show you why. It's what I was doing in Belarus. I had shot my self in the head and survived 14 times playing Russian roulette in Belarus, my fiancée at the time revived me 10 of the 15 I survived them all. Regardless after I convince my sibling and their buddy to put a silver bullet in the chamber. They convinced me to take the gun. I stood up held the gun to my right temple pulled the trigger didn't even fall over; my fiancée wasn't there to revive me so I survived but lost 3 years of memory.
@jehova

Scary, indeed...
jehova · 31-35, M
@Soossie It's only now 6-10 years later that the bullet tracts are starting to heal. I figured out how to remove the residue from thew bullet so that it can/does heal.

When I didn't take responsibility for my own failings... You can't learn nor grow as a person that way
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
@Soossie Most days ,yes.
Eventually, always, but my stubborn head still needs a whack every once in awhile.
@Justmeraeagain

And no one knows how to do that as well as yourself... 😂🤗🤗😘🌹

@Soossie you needn't apologize for my answer or reasons. It's just a fact of how I am my own worst enemy. If that's not enough, I am always offending people too by the things I say. 😑
@Iwillwait

You didnt offend me tho...

Hmm 🤔 either when I was born or when I begin to be able to have deeper thoughts...
@Viper

None, I think.... to be born is a blessing and a gift.... and having deeper thoughts helps us to become wiser and not a self enemy....🤗🤗
If i ever was then I've forgotten about it cause i like to be happy 🙂
