We're Lucky, There's a Cure!

In I.O.T. today, we had to look at some things at colleges and I came across this, I couldn't help but giggle. It was under Personal Counseling in the Mental Health section. Unfortunately, me and some my friends suffer greatly from this mental illness. BUT we are lucky there is a cure.

You are probably wondering what mental illness I might be suffering from, and the answer is

PERFECTIONISM
True story, here are some signs...

1. Unreasonable Goals
2. Self worth based on Achievements
3. Can't seem to self-reward
4. Based on comparisons with others
5. Feels unloved and invalidated unless performing well; Cannot share mistakes without excessive shame.
6. Excessive fear of failure; chronic
7. External standards for success
8. Goals exceed present performance by a great degree
9. Cannot find pleasure in progress toward the goal;Focus only on the outcome
10. Emphasis is on keeping life under control

Totally me, but funny, because most people in the world are this way.

If you feel as if you suffer from this illness...this terrible ailment of Perfectionism. There is a cure, and together, we can overcome it all.

Laugh it Up Chuckles

I've been told I have THE TALENT. Yes, that's right, the special little talent where I can get injured in the funniest ways imaginable. I also tend to get injured frequently, as in about once a month. For the month of March I managed to dislocate my toe, and yes, it is painful. But the funny part is how it was done...

I hit it with my xylophone.
This is where people usually start laughing...
