I am worthless, or close to it I twist my self-worth to depend on the people I care about, so the smallest, most unintentional slight is taken with too much sensitivity I don't deserve to be cared for I am *****, and bad I am at fault
...on my relationships:
I trust people I shouldn't too quickly, and people I should, not enough I am emotionally needy, seeking constant reassurance that someone cares At the same time, I push people away, testing their caring Relationships with my parents are superficial Relationships with my young siblings...were strained; now, they are better, but I am still unsure about how they really feel toward me
...on my views about ***:
*** is easily used for power *** is easily made to be about control *** is painful and causes guilt *** is a way to make people want and/or need you, to make them want to be close to you
...on my life in positive ways- what strengths have I gained?*
+For all my emotional neediness, I am pretty self-sufficient- I know how to run a household and take care of a family I am compassionate and empathetic I am not broken, even with all I have been through- this shows me that I am strong I know how not to parent
