For me, it was all about erasing that tape recorder playing in my head... the one from childhood that my parents made for me....telling me how I should never have been born, I was worthless, I was fat, or i was stupid, or I was a mean person, bad.it may not have always been words but actions... but the message was clear.

That tape has replayed in my head all my life.. i am 43 years old and only just realized in the last year or so that I could erase that tape and put something new on it to listen to.. program it the I want to.... with all nice things to say about myself to myself...

I had to set to work and start looking at myself with a different set if eyes... my parents eyes...that view was tainted see?

It isn't easy to take action like I did.. I don't want to imply that at all.. it takes alot of hard work but it is so worth it.. life is to be enjoyed.... don't let your life and joy be stolen from you.

I hope you start feeling better about yourself and your life soon! Best Wishes!
