Sadly no, i had - and still have to - reduce it. I've always been proud of my discipline, but i never used it to take care of myself, but instead used to push myself harder than i was able to sustain long term (runs in the family too). Too much discipline isn't a good thing, it becomes selfdestructive.

    Discipline is a form of self care. I think you are conflating a method with outcome in that case. I'd argue that it takes discipline to take care of yourself AND others.
