Well said @Pasta  !!

I LOVE this concept of a filter. It really emphasises how important restructuring and reframing our thoughts are. It gives us accountability and rather than waiting for another person to change for you, you take the agency to make the changes for yourself. Filtering would definitely go a long way in the recovery process. If I were to put it in a metaphor it's like a tv. It comes loaded with channels but of course we don't like all of them so we filter out the ones that we enjoy and ignore the rest because it serves no purpose other than to take up space in your brain which could be utilised for better, healthier things. 
This post has truly given me a lot to reflect on so thank you for sharing 💜
