This is timely. I have been feeling the shame and self-hatred of this exact thing! I'm actually afraid...


Thank you for sharing-I hate it as well. This week I wrote my feelings on paper and let my therapist read it. It was and is driving me crazy -she said it's understandable based on what I experienced. She believes I have a part that is feeling neglected, I think it's an 8 yr old part. (We have been working on the 5 yr old me) She always encourages me to write about my feelings and she is very reassuring. I just don't know what's freaking me out -I do crave a hug but she doesn't hug, I also get worried if I see other clients (I think I'm not important anymore). I think I felt important because I felt like a child with serious trauma-now she knows a lot of it-and I feel like I am nothing now.

Sorry for babbling
