Empathetic. Recommend professional help, coaching to heal inner child wounds. Feel it to heal it. When kids face low psychological protection, natural to internalise fear. Not receiving enough love, compassion, sensitivity equals abandonment. Toxic shame appears, ‘not important, not of value, not good enough’.
Emotional blocks occur when parents don’t provide effective environments for healthy development, traumatic events like death, abuse. Kids hide parts of personalities to be accepted, over protect selves. Not okay to make mistakes, feel naturally. Everyone else’s needs appear more important, hardly appreciated. Buried under unrealistic expectations, obligations. Stifles energy, creative self-expressions. Somehow, parents rely heavily on kids for their own sense of worth?
Wounds are struck deep in young hearts. Trigger sadness, pain. As a result, fears of being alone surface, demand emotional guarantees. Fears of real intimacy, preference for shallow interactions is an unfortunate effect. Fully understand. A viscous cycle.
But, there’s great help, hope, healing at hand. Trained counsellors, compassionate people help overcome fears of abandonment. Sensitively highlight where fears originate to tenderly process, heal patiently forever. Self-care, self-belief is the magic wand. Positive affirmations, pursuing passions, accepting authentic selves, faith in abilities, re-igniting child-like wonder builds innocence, inner strength, inspiration, balance, beauty. Just remember there’re people who’ll always love us exactly for who we are! What truly belongs can never be taken away!
