Advice: No hero worship left to give, and not proud of it
I have not said this to my husband or anybody else because I know it’s the equivalent of kicking a puppy. But I need help getting over this. How do you stop resenting people who did absolutely nothing wrong, but you are just burned out on the hero edit?Maybe you don’t need to stop the resentment so much as start doing more things you’re proud of.
If you’ve got nothing left in reserve for even the smallest generosities — no judgment here, there’s been a lot of “… everything” — then start with-generosity to yourself. Deep breathing. Open your chest and shoulders. A few times a day. Any time your resentments surge, maybe. Settle yourself. Forgive.If you feel any benefit, then project that outward, in any increment you’ve got. A kind word, a small favor.
