I seem to have a core belief that goes something like this:
If I have/ achieve a success in life, that's proof that my childhood abuse and the abuser were wrong. I'm a decent person.
If I have/ experience failures in life, it's proof that my abuser was right. I'm a bad person and I deserve to have bad things happen to me.
Anyone else have the same pattern?
Anyone been able to stop this pattern?
