Perfectionism can be sneaky and overwhelming, and is more common than you probably think.
The key is to open the door to vulnerability, and simply give less f*cks.
So what does perfectionism look like when you have (or maybe *think you don't* have) Anxiety?
๐คฏ Decision-type - you take a long time and struggle to make decisions, waiting for allll of the information first. You worry A LOT about making the "wrong" decision. Analysis paralysis anyone?
๐ด Fatigue-type - you spend a lot of time perfecting details, overthinking, and running on cortisol, and then forget to nourish yourself and rest, so you find yourself exhausted in the evenings or whenever you have 'time off'. Or maybe you give up on projects because the effort required to do it perfectly is simply too much.
๐ Defensive-type - when you make a mistake (even teeny tiny ones) you're hard on yourself, and feel the need to explain yourself to others. You have a hard time being vulnerable and putting yourself out there, receiving feedback, and/or trying new things.
Perfectionistic anxiety is a constant battle for some. But you can overcome it when you recognize your patterns and commit to growth, self acceptance, and self compassion.
