Hmmm...I really don't think the LW "takes her insecurities out on other women." She talks about a "voice that has suddenly taken over her head," a voice she's clearly appalled by because she calls it "horrible." She also talks about her "internal critical monologue," *internal being the key word there-- she's not calling anybody out on the street like she's the aging police. She says she feels "miserable" about herself; she calls her "antipathy towards aging" "terrible." So I think that it is certainly mature and productive of her to address this new and unwelcome hypercritical voice in her head. Have you never had ugly, unkind thoughts you did not want to be having?
