*I am a high-maintenance client. I am a sad scared little girl. I am an angry rebellious teenager. I am a self-reliant woman with above average intelligence. I am sad and small. I am overbearing and demanding. I am questioning and untrusting. I am sarcastic and amusing. I am outgoing and reserved. I am determined and strong but also fearful and weak. I am honest but withholding. I am compassionate and giving and yet also hard and cold. I am stubborn and willful. I hide behind the facade of a woman I want to be. I feel nothing and too much at the same time. I am the life of the party but never really present. I am beautiful crystal on the outside but shards of broken glass on the inside. I will endure a hurricane to take away someone else’s pain and turmoil and yet I cannot seem to do the same for myself.* I am the product of a man who wanted me in controlling and abusive ways.
