Aha, I've just realised something rather telling. I wrote don't reveal what you're resilience/child protective factors were, as if it were one's fault they could be low. It seems too... shaming/exposing. Yet the 'resilience' wasn't in our control whatsoever really, as children. Yet in so many ways I'm still 'owning' that. How powerful and pervasive is that. Wow! Something to ruminate over!!! I discuss the topic shame rather endlessly, yet haven't til now, really connected the intellectual understanding with the emotional. I've merely circled around the topic trying to evade the feeling.
Does anyone else feel this way?!
