I am a self criticizer .. to be very frank. I do criticize myself when I feel I have done something wrong, else made any wrong decision and for which I do have certain realization definitely. I think it is important to criticize oneself on wrong doing and correct oneself. How many of us really is a self Criticizer ? Do you people criticize yourself when you really that something went wrong because of you or you could have done something better. Its a sudden thought of mine that one should learn to restrict oneself to certain limit and understand the need of time.

When I do something stupid, then I will ask myself why I did that, so I guess I do criticize myself. I think that is common for people to do that, as we realize we made a mistake, and we know what we need to do to correct it. I have criticized myself a lot, but that is the only way I can correct my mistakes.

@Shayani I more than likely will continue to make stupid mistakes, but at least I have the means and know how to correct them, so that I don't make the same ones over and over.

It's similar to admitting your mistake, feeling sorry but at the same time finding a way on how to improve yourself and learning your lesson.

But I have seen many people too much fond of themselves and avoid realizing their mistakes. It is always good to love yourself and also criticize on wrong doing and mistakes !!!

I think we are human and we all commit mistake knowingly or unknowingly at one point of time or the other. I certainly feel made if I commit a mistake, however, I do not criticize myself too long. I try to learn from my mistake so that I could correct myself in future.

Most of us are way too self critical. It is best to try to be loving of ourselves, while expecting a certain standard.

I think most of us do this. At least we are aware of our short comings.

I am forever beating myself up but I don't consider it very healthy really.
