Promptly Unhinged: What Would You Say to a Friend Who Felt Like You Do Right Now?
guiding chaos, one prompt at a time
This one’s about compassion, but with a cheat code: Pretend it’s not you.
Because let’s be real, your inner critic would never talk to your best friend like that.
But somehow it has a megaphone when it comes to you.
So here’s your reframe:
What would you say to someone you loved if they felt exactly how you feel right now?
Your Turn:
What would you say to them gently, honestly, or even with a little sass?
Would you tell them to rest? To eat? To cry on the couch for a bit?
Would you remind them that they’re allowed to be tired and still worthy?
Now—what happens if you say that to yourself?
You’re not being dramatic. You’re being human. And journaling it counts, even if it’s just a few words of softness.
