Before I created the program I use to stay stable- I used to be terrifically hard on myself. I don’t think I praised myself for years- except when I was manic of course and then the praise was a bit grandiose. 
I now praise myself each time I accomplish something. Always. It’s automatic now- even when I’m depressed. When I finish something, I have the thought- Good for you Julie!
Do you do this? It took me a while to master the technique, but I’m glad I did. It’s a lot better than what my mind used to say.
