I am adding a link here because I think this applies to both areas. Negative self talk is very much like AV but I feel not the same. Maybe conceptually but for me definitely different.
I manage them similarly. They arise out of the same places. They try to hurt me. But they have different food sources as I call em.
Possibly even look at it as one is external in ways and one internal? Love to hear your opinions.
I am sure that will be debated.
