Keep healing that child
by: Anonymous

Hi Florida,

The feeling I take from reading what you have written is desperation. This may be entirely wrong I know - cold text is so much less than speaking face to face.

You seem to have a lot of awareness of where you are and how your childhood has contributed to how you feel.

It does sound to me like you have a hurt and scared child inside you.

Perhaps the prison was a place of safety for this child, and a place of hiding from the shame.

Perhaps there are small, safe ways that you can meets the needs of this child. Perhaps you can let her know that you are not shaming her.

As you get to know her and meet her needs, she will gradually feel safer and less shamed. It may be a slow process (I'm someone who is a slow learner, though you may not be), but each step can feel like a definite improvement.

It sounds to me like you have a good grasp of what you are doing and what you need to do. My feeling is that you need to hear from others, like me, that considering where you have come from, you are doing very well.
