dame71 Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 I often found myself bringing up the issue of self sabotage in recovery over the years - but the best way I have found to challenge it on a daily basis is this:SELF-SABOTAGE= any action/decision etc that will increase your suffering in some way - or even keep it the same.SELF-SABOTAGE= opposite of self-care, self-care being anything that reduces your suffering (on a larger scale)For example, I might be distressed and not want to eat. But, I question myself - will this result in increasing or decreasing my suffering.For me, this technique works for every aspect in my life. I hope you also find it helpful.
