    I’m one of those kids. Either we’re over explaining people pleasers or the trauma turned us into monsters.

      I think I know what you mean. That inner flurry can have a silent persistence that pushes us one way or the other, but doesn’t let us rest. Have you found anything that helps?

          Forgive me for offering unsolicited advice, but one-to-one therapy with a psychodynamic trained (or other modality) can really help.

          In parallel, meditation can help to overcome a certain amount of the uncomfortable feelings. I can share an inspiring documentary with you in the latter.
