Dear Caroline:

How have you been feeling in the last 3 days since you posted?

Last Monday, you wrote: “I feel like… I am not capable to… save myself. To be my own parent“.

First, it takes getting acquainted with your inner child. Here is from John Bradshaw’s inner child worksheets available online, no cost ( (www. scribd. com/ inner child worksheets):

“Questionnaire for getting Acquainted with our Inner Child- Complete the following with as many answers as come to your mind:

1. As a child, I heard that my most significant faults were……   2. As a child, I felt guilty for/ when…..

.. 5. Messages I received about money were…  6. I felt rejection when…   7. I felt fear when…   8. I felt anger when…”.

There is much more in the worksheets, in the section I quoted from, and in other sections. If you want, if you can, you are welcome to fill in parts of the worksheets here, on your thread.
