Healing my inner child

This may sound a bit like mumbo jumbo but it’s the how I need to heal myself of attachment issues, trust issues, low self esteem and the negative way I view myself from childhood and early adult bullying and abuse. And self expression is also an issue.

it’s like the puppy imprinting stage - if this isn’t done correctly then the dog will be a challenge to train.

Because I received bullying throughout my childhood, I thought at the time, it was right and the normal way to be treated. I was also sexually assaulted in my early teens by somebody I trusted. I’ve come to terms with that to a certain extent but what that bullying and abuse has done is imprinted issues in my behaviour into adulthood. And when I exhibit behaviours relating to this I feel like a child.

Now I know this, found the root to my issues as it is called, I can now work on healing my inner child with life coaching or therapy.

Because I am insecure in all close relationships, I feel ugly and I am socially awkward and anxious because I wasn’t allowed to express myself as a child. And that isn’t nice or healthy.
