I went into hiding and have been healing from a shitload of childhood trauma and I’m slowly but surely rewiring my brain. it’s very painful to face everything but incredibly necessary to be who I’m meant to be on this earth. it’s an ongoing journey but I’ve come so far this past year and a half. I’m so proud of myself.

I’m very open with the fact that I was in years of intense therapy.  I still get tune ups if I need it.  I do believe we all have core wounds we’re constantly working on.  I also think I’ve grown to be a very healthy person. I have deep, deep father wounds that are never going to fully heal.  I’ve worked on it, and they’re not bothersome most of the time.  I recognize when it’s triggered and work through it.  I just realize I’m going to probably live with it forever, the hope is that it gets smaller and smaller. I have a history of abusive relationships that I’ve worked really hard to heal from. Stuff from that typically only comes up during conflict, but I’m aware of it and work on it. Thankfully it comes up with people who love me and that has been so healing. Going from hyper independence to interdependence and learning to be in process with others has been.. work. But worth it. I’ve always been incredibly hard on myself if I hurt people- it’s always unintentional, but how dare I be a human who makes mistakes!!  I still have to be extra kind to myself and talk myself off the ledge when this comes up.  Funny that I found this meme just today lol

It’s not glamorous and there’s a period where it feels really bad and it’s like why would I trust this freak with my deepest, darkest. But then after a couple years something will happen that you used to freak out about and you will notice that you’re not freaking out and you’ll realize that it took years to create your issues and it’s taking years to undo them but it’s happening.

been on a CPTSD healing journey in somatic therapy and for the first time in my life, I’ve made peace with not being able to control how other people feel. by surrendering control and ending the habit of intellectualizing my feelings, I ride the wave of each embodied feeling, letting myself cry or shake or groove or stretch. as a result, I’ve found it easier to avoid self-betraying (by people pleasing or fawning). I’ve found my center 🥲

if you grew up being a people pleaser like me, it can be so damn hard to set boundaries. but it was so great when I finally realized I simply didn’t have to say yes to everything/everyone. it was wild. blew my mind. I highly recommend.
