I do not have a passion either. I am in awe of people I come across that had a calling on what they wanted to go to college and become. I have been floundering in life going from one job to the next just to earn money not because I have a calling for it. I landed in personal training because well I worked out a lot and I did not need a college degree. Then I figured I could earn more money if I became a massage therapist and that only required me to go to school on the weekends for a year and take a licensing test. No need for brains on any of these. I skirt by. I fake it until I make it.
Still waiting to feel passion for anything, except to stay in the house and hide, to fall upon me.

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.
