How do I quiet that voice in my head that tells me I'm not good enough to be loved?

Push the voice away you start telling the voice what to do you tell it that your good enough and you don't need that voice .

Talk back to it! Fight with it! You are absolutely perfect do not let it make you feel anything less! We are all different , we are all unique.If that voice does not let you see that ,then you make your voice louder than the one in your head! Tell that voice in your head I AM GOOD ENOUGH . You are! always remember that.

The voice inside your head is just trying to distract you from that fact that you are an amazing human being. With all your flaws and follies, all your imperfections you are still wonderful and capable of amazing things. Trust yourself. Love yourself. You deserve it.

Tell that voice in your head that it has no idea what it is taking about. It is the back-seat driver just a long for the ride who doesn't chip in for gas or food and just complains about everything.

You tell it that it's wrong and that you are good enough to be loved because you are. You deserve to be loved.

First I will identify whose voice is that. Usually its our or someone we are scared of. Reason of such voices are competition in one sense or other, either we are aware or unaware of it, as far as I understand it. Secondly there is no measurement tool of being good till a level where people start loving someone. So the basis of this voice totally unreal. Understanding this helps us to a certain point where we can get over it. With practice ofcourse.

I lie down listen to calming positive music and remind myself that I am important and deserve everything the world has to give.

If you are experiencing put down thoughts you can think about more positive thoughts if possible or talk it out with a family member.

It's hard. As someone who struggles with the same issue, it is hard to not listen to the voices. I can't get rid of it instantly and often end up crying. However, here's a few ways of how i usually try to calm down. 1. Watching something or listening to music. I do this so I can focus on something else instead of the voices. I recommend using earphone, earbuds, etc to block outside noises. When it doesnt go immediately, don't worry. Keep focusing, breathe. Oh, and make sure the movie/video/song doesn't have smth that can trigger you. 2. I'm not an artsy person, but I let my feelings out by drawing or writing it down. Its ok to cry when you do this, keep writing, keep drawing until you feel better. 3. If you have someone you love or someone who loves you, talk to them. It's risky and you may feel like you're bothering them, but you're not. If they love you truly, they will be there for you. Tell them your concerns, your thoughts, anything that the voices tells you. Let those people reassure you, hug you, calm you down. These ways may not be working for everyone because we cope differently, but it's alright. Everyone deserves to be loved, so do you.

For me, the best thing I can do is not try to silence it but try to live alongside it and tell myself that I know it's wrong. That it can be as loud as it wants, like an annoying neighbor knocking at your door, but I refuse to let it in. Sometimes I will actually visualize that voice as a monster in my head outside of my home. And every time I have a bad thought I picture it knocking on my door or window and me closing the curtains or ignoring the knocks. Knowing that no matter *HOW HARD* that little voice tries to tell me something, I tell myself that it *is not me*. That the opinion of this thing or voice doesn't change who I *know* I am any more than the opinion of some stranger on the street. Again, I don't quite try to ignore it or push it away so much as just accept it and kind of go "Hey, look, I know you're not going anywhere so you can try as hard as you want to change my mind but I KNOW I'm right and you're wrong so DEAL WITH IT." and over time this has actually seemed to make that voice go away on it's own. The more you give it power the larger it grows. Don't give it that power.
