False Identities to Release

SYMPTOMS + PERPETUATING BEHAVIORS
Do you recognize these symptoms or behaviors that perpetuate the wound?
🌀 Give away my resources (time, energy, money, body, services, etc.) for free or for very little, as if they were disposable.
🌀 Chronically borrow against my own security and well being, thus perpetually feeling depleted, indebted and/or in survival mode.
🌀 Overstay miserable relationships and/or flee at the first sign of conflict.
🌀 Unable to receive, thus compulsively reciprocate any acts of kindness with an act of owing others back.
🌀 Chronically wait for the other shoe to drop.
🌀 Lack a healthy sense of entitlement in getting my needs / desires met.
🌀 Often beat self up, unsure how to nurture and meet my own needs / desires.
