I know my wounds. How do I heal?
Going to a deeply painful and personal story of someone identifying pain and a deep feeling of insecurity on the subreddit of spirituality. Let's take a look and give my advice for this person realizing their 'wounds' and how to grow stronger after realization:
Now that I'm aware of a gaping wound how do I heal it?
I was done...at my wits end today. Why am I feeling this way I questioned myself...after years of personal development there is still something missing. Replaying every moment In my head...imagining worse case scenarios is my relationship and friendship. This chaotic insecurity I wondered...where is it coming from?.
I always used to deny that I had an unworthiness wound. Due to my good covering up of this aspect I always thought I was now mature and confident in reality but this is far from reality. I couldn't take it anymore, I ran to my bathroom leaving my books behind...forgetting that I have a quiz tomorrow. I couldn't help my tears as I looked at myself in the mirror. I closed my eyes and started tracing back events going deeper into my psyche. It started getting very painful...my body started to shake and I finally found the root cause of my issue..my inner child...I remembered scenes...when I was treated like shit in school. I remember how when I was small I felt so disgusted of myself and so unworthy of myself...I knew then..
This was the wound I had been searching for. As I approached my inner child, I hugged her and the way she started to cry made me lose it..I started crying hysterically too, because I could feel her pain..I lost it and I released the hug once I felt it was okay. This was the worst pains I have ever felt.. I'm still a bit teary and I know for a fact this is the root of my insecurities , the root of literally every problem I have regarding self confidence and my relationships.
How do I heal this completely?
