I think I used self deprecation as to keep others from being bad about their level of achievement in comparison to me. I think I also used it to lower myself in their eyes so they wouldn’t be disappointed when I did make a mistake. Knowing that self deprecation isn’t healthy makes me adjust my beliefs about myself and change how I interact with others.
You are right. There were plenty of moments in my life where I learned through my mistakes and gained valuable experience and wisdom from it. Striving for perfection actually keeps me from asking certain questions and getting answers that I would need. It keeps me from learning and growing actually.
