My abusers have told me that I'm dumb, selfish, mean, useless, that I wanted what I got etc I believed all that stuff for a long time I still have to readjust my thinking and my perception of myself sometimes...

But then I go to people who are not abusers, and believe what they tell me..

I didn't notice the second emoticon in the rain was smiling. I misunderstood your statement.

ABUSERS are insecure and do "projection"---that is, they project onto others what they feel about themselves. It is never ending, they have to continue to abuse others, to feel better about themselves. Noone has the right to define US....we do that.

I'm sorry to hear they told you that. None of that is true. You are a bear-y awesome person!

You are smart, caring, kind, helpful, and you know what you are feeling.

In short: You are a smart, loveable, and good bear!
