Deep dives
The Importance of Self-Perception
Making jokes at one's expense can be detrimental to self-esteem, as the subconscious mind may not distinguish between humor and reality. Engaging in self-deprecating humor may arise from a desire to preemptively deflect criticism, but this behavior ultimately reinforces negative aspects of one's identity. The brain's plasticity means that repeated negative self-talk can become hardwired into thought patterns, making it easier to default to these beliefs. Careful attention should be given to the language used about oneself, as it greatly affects self-identity and the perception of capabilities.
