@Jynx I wish people under The need for reassurance, not in an unhealthy way! But like you would if a child was learning to stand for the first time, the first day of school, when you fall over and hurt your knee. 

Our brains have been through a lot of different traumas and always seem to live to in fight or flight mode because we feel be stuck because our brains didn’t have the chance to develop and learn in a healthy and nurturing environment -  it’s excruciating.

We never had the chance to “enjoy” life growing up, in many different ways we were just trying to survive whatever our childhood contained, and now we fight to unpack it and seperate ourselves, from what happened to us and the future ahead that WE control. 

it’s a battle but with the right skills it’s definitely one worth fighting 🩷
