I find it very triggering when I’m being misunderstood or being accused of things I didn’t do. I’d immediately attack! No mercy whatsoever. I want to prove that I’m right or I simply shut down. I know it goes back to when I was growing up, I was misunderstood or falsely accused many times. I was very scared and angry. How I coped was by shutting down coz no one is going to believe me anyway. I was also forced to lie so I wouldn’t get punished. A lot of anger bubbling up.
Today I am practising parenting my inner child.
I am grateful for the opportunity to parent my inner child.
Today I am safe.
Change in this area allows me to feel heard.
Today I am practising when feeling triggered, I hug my inner child.
