No.

No, I don’t believe it can work.

I don’t believe that part of me can heal until the abuse stops and it will only stop when I am able to stand up for my younger parts.

I have to wonder if I’m the enabler of the abuse. If a person is a bully and they aren’t called out, it will surely continue and probably get worse as they see the weakness. It kind of feels like a cat playing with a mouse.

If there was a way to stop the automatic switch that happens maybe things could be different.
