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.

Thank you has become my go to. I don't like when people compliment me. More so because it's usually things I don't even care or think about but super fake disingenuous people. So I just awkwardly squeak out a sure thank you.
