Anyone else head bang......i do for two reasons. First so i do not have to hide scars and two it is so painful it immediately distracts from the horrible feelings i am avoiding and it only takes 5-8 slams to do the job. Ok so I have to deal with bruises and big lump on my forehead but my bangs cover it. My T's do not even know that is how I self harm. They think I still burn. Today was a bad self harming day. I deal with a Gas-lighting bullying coworker.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
