How do you get rid of the toxic belief, that if you think well of yourself.. you are arrogant?

It is something that was engrained in me and it is very VERY difficult to rid this belief now. It is really ruining my life over time :(

Makes me start to wonder if I’m not borderline narcissist

@Jenny1234 I don't believe so at all...you are warm and kind. The two narcissists in my family are RARELY EVER those things 🪻

@Coralmist but I do think well of myself, even though I don’t outwardly act like it in person. but I don’t want people here to think im a narcissist just because I think well of myself.

@Jenny1234 No that is not a true narcissist. It is making EVERY interaction about them. It is criticizing EVERYTHING. It is trying to always be right...threaten...and mock someone. Not thinking well of yourself 🫂💜

@Jenny1234 Nothing wrong with thinking well of yourself. That is confidence not being a narcissist.

@Jenny1234 you're not. I feel that you have a healthy confidence about you..
