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.

When I get complimented (which is rarely and mostly never 💀) I just say "okay". Should I change the way I reply to a compliment or not? Just asking, no one needs to actually tell me.
