As I work through my trauma-esq issues and come out the other side, I recognize that my having been brainwashed as a child/infant has been and continues to be, a key to recovery.
I was brainwashed to believe:
1. Not to believe myself
2. Not to listen to myself and to accept said behaviour from others
3. To accept 2nd (or last) class behaviours from others (not just verbally)
4. That fighting back is worse than death
5. That death is the outcome of any type of pleasure
6. That no matter how hard I try, I am never good enough
7. That acceptance from other's is the key to my survival
8. That it is better to punish myself than have others punish me
9. That living in a self imposed void is safer than living IRL
10. To accept that I (and ONLY I) am the cause of EVERYTHING horrible that happens
I am certain there are more. Anyone else notice brainwashed patterns in themselves?
