Sannah asked:
"Hi Seeker, do you really think that you did all of this because you had little self-worth? I think that it has something to do with what we were molded to do. We did it unconsciously, because we were trained."
For me, the business of being "trained" was part of being raised by someone who was narcissistic. That's what I think. How would a child gain self-esteem when being raised by someone who is completely self-absorbed, abusive and who gives no loving feedback or validation to a child?
