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. |

I think all of those are accurate. Yeah you do end up intuitive as ****. My colleagues and friends think I'm psychic.
They also think i should work for FEMA because of my constant planning for worst case scenario. (PLEASE FIND ME DURING THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE!). I think most people live in LaLa land. Therapy has knocked out most of the mistrust and hatred of fellow humans, EXCEPT, I do not expect any of them, when the chips are down, to have my back. I'll likely have theirs. Although a bit strange on my part, I do not consider them to be in "con" category at all. Frankly I consider them gifts. Another thing about having utterly crazy parents is that, well, I never had anyone's belief system instilled in me. I never imprinted. At first it caused a lot of existential confusion, until I realized that holy ****! I get to chose for myself. The exploration of who I am, versus what someone wanted me to be, has been awesome. I get to write the book on me. Great article. Thanks!

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
