Trauma conditioning is autopilot for self-cruelty & self-destruction. Its taking us on a trip where we don’t wanna go.
I choose recovery, however slow & imperfect, b/c I want a life reflecting my values. I take committed actions to realize my values in the world. With self-care, I persist.

Survivors of childhood trauma will often carry such a deep sense of inadequacy that no success will make us reconsider our defectiveness. Wins are always minimized, compliments feel dirty.
It’s not a question of trying harder, it’s a matter of learning to be kind to ourselves, root to stem.

Neither the last name on your birth certificate nor the DNA embedded in your cells "doom" you to be like "them."
Those might be markers of specific vulnerabilities-- but absolutely not signposts of destiny.
