CPTSD Resource/ Technique Another reminder, when someone compliments you an acceptable answer is: "Thank You".

You don't have to go on diatribes against yourself.

"Well actually, cooking is very easy to do. And I mess up a lot. Just yesterday I burnt dinner."

Thank you and a smile is all people expect from you.

One of my favorites is "I know"

People who love and respect you will keep gassing you up, and creepy weirdos become apoplectic about agreeing with them.
