I want so bad to discuss what happened in my EMDR session yesterday but just could not post thinking about how it might be used on the internet. I am obviously now thinking about everything I have ever posted and how embarrassing it would be to see it being used as a topic somewhere else.
I feel like I just lost one of my only support system where I can post my raw unfiltered feelings about my mental health and my journey with mental health professionals. Normal people out here just do not understand.

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.
