Lately I’ve been letting some stupid childhood issues hold me back and affect my self confidence. I’ve sort of had ‘OCD’ about it. I know this isn’t rational because I’m now 52 and it seems to affect me less if anything when I was 18 and more embroiled in it all! I was still living at home with controlling parents then - now both my parents are dead! I’ve wasted whole days on this obsession of mine - overeating etc - what a waste!
Last night I had a horrendous dream which involved shame, embarrassment, vulnerability and acute sadness I was so relieved to wake up and find it wasn’t real.
This has made me pull my finger out this morning and strive to move forward positively and leave behind my difficult past!
