I'm glad you have a therapist and can work on this now, rather than later, which is what I did. I could have written your first paragraph. I didn't seek therapy until I was already 40, and it's been a five year journey so far and I'm far from feeling better. I logically know none of it is my fault, but the rejection of parents hurts so much. It's about learning to love yourself. The faster you can get out of the house, the better. Wishing you luck!
