Dear Helcat:
You are welcome!
“I don’t believe it’s based in guilt for me… I blamed myself, as children do” – to blame is to assign responsibility for a fault or wrong, and guilt is a state of believing that you have done wrong… so you did experience guilt as a child, didn’t you? You are welcome to elaborate on it,if you would like to.
“I have a bad habit of avoiding physical pain by focusing on anxiety. I have a habit of worrying about various stressors in my life as opposed to focusing on emotional pain from the past” – I wonder what you mean by avoiding physical pain, what physical pain? Again, if you would like to elaborate, please do.
I will be back to the computer in about 11 hours from now.
