I have C-PTSD. A major block in my coping mechanism of dealing with life is the fear that I will get into trouble. I do not stand up for myself with authority figures. I am sensible when in conversation with them (doctors etc) but do not fight for my viewpoint at the time because of this fear.
My major trauma was my Narcissistic mother.
What can I tell myself that will change this thought pattern. I know it will involve practise but I would love to hear some ideas on how to replace that thought, that I will believe.
Would writing possible outcomes that are based on logic be a good thing to do? I dont respond to things like "I deserve to be heard" It has to be practical for me to use it.
