A question dear to me: Are your beliefs about yourself your own?
I used to not believe I was a woman for a short period of time in my life. But I was made to believe that. That belief was not something I came up with. What followed was a long period of shame for invalidating what the outside believed about me. Shame for being me. So out of fear and shame I did not live accordingly.
my personal opinion:
Seek the self perception that does not originate from the self and rip it out wherever possible. Invalidate, replace and live the truth.
