Not just going through that but being mocked for showing vulnerability makes it extremely hard to open up to people cause you carry all that shame and perceive that also as a weakness. It can take awhile but it just takes one person who doesnt judge you/you it against you or to some extent be less judgemental on yourself. Believing you are weak is just such a huge detriment and I can only hope most realize we are more capable than we think once that mental block is cleared.

Being slapped and hit when expressing sadness or any other vulnerable feeling really did it for me. It's tough navigating in a world where I feel like any interaction gone slightly wrong will lead to that again, but normal people don't live like that. Normal people don't anticipate that other people will hit them. The guide's given me the space to feel scared and actually deal with it, so thx dude.

ADHD so many lost fights for things that really mattered to me.. my mind is tired, my body is battered, I am exhausted.. going through my 4th burnout. I've been curled up in my bed for more than 6months now and I don’t know if I'll ever find the motivation to get out there and try some more.. to end up burnt out again...

It's a tough mindset to break. You're completely right though.

This hits hard as someone who grew up with the combo of autism/ADHD and strict parents who withheld love because I underperformed in school or embarrassed them socially. I made it to my 30s honestly believing I was just fundamentally weak, lazy, broken, and immoral. I didn’t not realise I was ND. I have autism in my family, and it had been suggested before. I think I knew it on a deep level to be true, like someone who’s so deep in the gay closet they’ve even convinced themselves they’re straight. But I just couldn’t accept it. That kind of self-delusion comes from extreme emotional abuse in childhood and parents teaching kids to associate fundamental parts of their selves with shame, failure, and moral weakness.
The only reason I still believe in love is bc I know how much a human being suffers without it.

I was expected to be a fully functioning adult by the time I was 4. My mother let us all know what a burden and what lousy kids we were. We were considered "needy" for having normal childhood expectations from love to school supplies.

The trick for me has been to separate where I am truly powerless—over others, from where I have power—over myself. For years I had this backwards.

The hardest thing is regaining your strength, after you realize it was taken from you. Everything just hits the ear wrong when you’re down too, so accepting good advice and help is difficult, but necessary.

I needed to hear this.
I'm struggling with an insecurity my partner planted at me of "no effort from my side will fix what's wrong or make her feel better" and that's affected my perception of how much others value me.

Still going through it, but this flip on the script really helps me

I find that part of the problem in unlearning this is how embarrassing it can feel to even have this problem. I know exactly what the problem is for me: my dad was always very critical, and I got picked on in school. But I'm a fucking 30 year old man, I shouldn't still be held back in life by the memory of people not being nice to me in school and my dad not giving me enough atta-boys, so the temptation is always to just ignore the problem and tell myself "Nope, I'm just gonna not have this problem anymore!" and then fall flat on my face because good intentions don't fix it, thus making me feel like maybe it's too late to recover from this and I'm a lost cause. Which is a very tempting thought to lean into, because if it's too late to do anything about it, I don't feel quite so inadequate for failing

INTERVIEWER: “what is your biggest weakness?”
ME: “this belief of weakness doesn’t come from my weakness, it comes from someone else’s unrealistic expectations who taught me I was weak”

As do all ( or most ) of what we learn and self identity as . Humans learn to mirror the words thoughts and actions of the people around them, and the people that they see often subconsciously or unconsciously, you are the sum of your surrounding.

I have been struggling to let go of the things my abusive ex said to me about myself, and the healing this brought me legitimately felt like a warm hug. Thank you ❤

And then, if your sense of who you are is shaken, it's difficult to trust yourself, easy to doubt yourself... and on it goes 🤷‍♀️. So difficult to break the cycle..

I love your ability to give simple yet deep nuanced explanations that cover a lot of territory!
I was aware of my instant momentary freeze when you spoke the word powerlessness, but the shame that usually accompanies that dissolved as you continued to label the cause as someone else’s unrealistic expectations. Thank you so much Dr K.

What if my sense of weakness comes rather from a complete lack of expectations from these 1 or 2 people?

I feel so ill-prepared to live life, I don't know how to do it. It's embarrassing to admit it as an adult nearing their 30s.

I often feel like a bird in a small yet weak cage. The cage might even be open and I can see the open world beyond it, but I dare not go into it, because I don't know how to fly.
