It's hard isn't it!! I know that you're right. When I was young I didn't really realise that there was anything wrong with the adults who were supposed to care for me and I unconsciously assumed that if I felt bad it was because I was a bad person. It's hard to get one's head around 'unlearning' those unhelpful things.
I think that maybe everything can never be ok in the sense of 100% healed, exactly on a level playing field just as if nothing bad had happened and needs had been met. But what I am very thankful to experience is that things can be so so so much better than before.
It's a good point to be at and I feel fortunate and thankful ... even tho Go as you say, these feelings can be very hard ... I hope that things keep on getting better and better for you too
