Overview

Why do I sabotage everything - and how do I stop? If you've ever procrastinated on the project you cared most about, picked fights just when things were going well, or felt like a fraud even when you were thriving - you're not alone. Self-sabotage isn't laziness or weakness. It's protection. It's your mind and body doing their best to keep you safe... even if the methods are outdated and exhausting. ""Why Do I Sabotage Everything?"" is a gentle, trauma-informed guide to understanding your inner critic and learning how to work with it, not against it. Drawing on insights from person-centred therapy, compassion-focused therapy, and mindfulness, this book helps you: Recognise common sabotage patterns - procrastination, perfectionism, quitting, avoidance - and where they come from. Understand the roles of your inner critic, protector, and vulnerable self. Break free from shame spirals and soften the voice that says you're ""not enough."" Explore why success can feel dangerous, especially if you've experienced trauma, marginalisation, or rejection. Practise daily tools for self-support, repair after setbacks, and gentle growth that sticks. Written in a warm, chatty style, this book is especially welcoming to LGBTQIA+ and neurodiverse readers, offering affirming strategies for navigating visibility, masking, and belonging. This is not a quick-fix manual or another pressure-filled self-improvement plan. It's a compassionate companion for anyone tired of fighting with themselves. You don't need to defeat your inner critic. You only need to understand it - and learn to walk alongside it with kindness.
