I do think it feels that way, which however is why I don't have anger about it unless self-directed. It flows from there I wasn't worth it. I used to not understand (in words) why I felt that way, but it wasn't a trigger to trauma (except speaking up leading to silence), it was a trigger to childhood. So as an adult I get angry only at myself when left floundering for thinking, I know better (about myself), why would I think it could be different? of no worth then, why now.
