"They Shut The Child Up In A Room."

Emotional Support

This phrase came to me just now about my childhood.

It saddened me.

I have the best parents in the world. But they hurt me a lot. Without meaning to.

I spent SO MUCH TIME in my room alone… so many hours, I remember it became actually painful.

What the hell was going on that they did that to me? I couldn’t have been a sweeter little girl.

I guess I just need to grieve and hold my inner child as I meditate.

Oh. And find out how this affects me today.

Thanks for listening.

I’m sorry that you’re having a difficult time dealing with your past childhood trauma. I also had a really rough go in childhood. It helps me to frame it like this “my parents did the best they were capable of at the time”. It wasn’t very good, at times it was horrific… but it wasn’t intentional. Best wishes to you.
