Becoming Your own Bestfriend

When you have experienced difficult situations growing up, you may have a sense of loneliness inside. Often this is a hidden feeling. Since it is tied to childhood experiences, we may call this part the "lonely inner child". There are many self-help books describing this situation such as "Healing the Child Within" by Whitfield. The most important plan of action is to commit yourself to become a parent to this inner child and respect and care for him or her. Becoming best friends will become a rewarding healing journey.

Thank You.

Deciding who you want to be

When you are an adult you can better understand how you grew up and whether you want to change. You have the option to improve yourself and learn skills that will help you to be the person you want to be. Communication skills are especially important because they enable you to have caring and loving relationships with others. It may help to examine the positive attributes you received growing up as well as the limitations. You will feel empowered when you take charge of getting on a path of self-improvement.

Thank You.

How does the past affect you?

How does the past affect you?

The past affects everyone even though we may not be fully aware of it. You may have grown up with adults that were angry, abused drugs and/or alcohol, criticized you, or were very strict and implied that they could not trust you to do the right thing. As a result, you may have rebelled or felt that there was something wrong with you. Even though these are childhood experiences they can be overcome. Mental health professionals are trained to assist you in addressing such hurts from the past and help you feel more confident and accept yourself more.

I will let you know in future posts how painful childhood experiences can be healed.

Thank You.
