Hi TeaK,

How’re you? Thank you for going through my thread. I’m sorry I didn’t see your post earlier. What you’re saying makes a lot of sense. I kept thinking that I had no self-esteem but now that I think about it, why would I feel bad about being disrespected by my mother or my ex, for that matter, if I had no sense of self-respect. Exactly as you said, I think I did think I was valuable but wasn’t sure and so stayed in self-doubt where I would feel bad over disrespect but would often wind up seeing it as my fault. Thank You for the insight. As you must have read, I’ve been seeing a therapist to detangle stuff from my childhood. I think I’ll discuss what you pointed out with her too and get back to you. Thank You.

Jenny
