Dear norit:

Understanding things, clarity is very important for mental health, well being. Please do evaluate any and every insight suggested to you by another person, any insight or information and figure out if it is true in your experience. Your crying reading my last post is meaningful. It means that your inner child, that young girl I mentioned, felt understood, that she indeed needs you to be gentle, patient and kind to her.

Of course it is fine for you to share more, to update with your thoughts. I would like you to do that, very much so.

I am not writing more of my thoughts (forgot them at the moment, will have to refresh) because information in mental health is valuable only if you pay attention and practice it. When you cried, it means your inner child needs you to be loving to her. The practice needed is just that, you being loving to her.

This is crucial. So please do that every step of the way today, and every day, best you can. Don’t fail your little girl. She needs you to love her. Always. And no matter what.
