Hello men of trp.

The way I was always raised, (by my mother mostly, and my father only felt validated with my mom around) was to always look for validation in someone or something else. I don't and haven't known any other way. So throughout my life, the cycle is always the same. I'm on a high place, someone questions or insults be, and I am being a beta feeling like shit about myself and questioning everything I know.

I'm an addict actively trying to control it but never defeating it. This is a huge weakness of mine. Taking trp is the closest I've ever been to unraveling and destroying this mindset.

What are practical ways for me to stop seeking validation from others?
