I call that "toxic discouragement". It sucks. I have slowly learned to recognize it and attack it. By giving up and giving in, we only add insult to injury. It doesn't change anything for the better, it only creates more problems. It's like kicking yourself when you are down. I wouldn't wish it on anyone, so why do I persist in doing this to myself? These are the thoughts which help me reject giving up, although I still find it a big challenge when that mood strikes. I wish you luck.
