Dear Marina:
It makes sense what this man told you, “that I want to hear and accept the truth that I think about in my head and will not listen to him”- we often don’t hear what another person is saying because a voice in our brain is louder than the voice of the person talking to us. The voice or voices we hear are our parents’ voices that get activated over and over again.
We have to recognize that we are hearing those long-ago voices and then turn down the volume on them so that we can hear what the real person in front of us is saying.
What did he mean by telling you that you “needed to stop victimized myself”- how did you victimize yourself?
