When you were born you were perfect and beautiful. Somewhere along the way a person (or people) told you lies, and as children we are not sophisticated enough realize that (their self hatred) had nothing to do with us and everything to do....with them. As adults we need to de-program ourselves and that is difficult because those old tapes keep interfering with the logical self. Just be gentle with yourself and do what you can.

We don't "get over" abuse...we try and find a way to live with what happened.
