I have a question about how can I stop reacting to current life situations (I am 43) based upon how I was treated as a child by my parents who were emotionally abusive to me and my sisters. I have heard that "it was bad for me then but it does not have to be bad for me now". And I agree with that statement but am not sure how to make it happen so that I don't feel that it is still bad for me now. Hopefully, this question makes sense.
