So apparently my T thinks I'm traumatized and my friend thinks I'm looking for something or someone. I can't win for loosing it seems. I give up.

I think I agree with your T, based on what you've written here.

But truly, the opinion that should matter is your own.

What if my only opinion of myself is worse than what everyone thinks? I can't even remember my childhood and who I was with and what I did. And I don't recognize myself now. If I dont know myself, who am i to know what I think?

I really, really understand that confusion. I have come to accept that I am who I choose to be. It isn't about an inner "goodness" or "badness". It's about what choices I make and the way I choose to believe.

Oh hon, I think so many of us feel that way. With me, it's the low self esteem talking, but I can tear myself down in seconds.

What I'm finding is that I don't know who I am either. It's scary. But the best part is that I get to PICK who I want to be. And it's fun. I pick snowboarding. I pick skateboarding. I pick reading and crocheting. I pick baking and jewelry making. I pick things I love an things I want to learn.

It's ok to not know, just keep pushing forward and pick new things.
