SYMPTOMS + PERPETUATING BEHAVIORS

Do you recognize these symptoms or behaviors that perpetuate the wound?

🌀  Present self as having it all together and don’t need anything from anyone.

🌀  Be a know-it-all, constantly correcting others with unsolicited advice, closed off to new insights, lessons, or perspectives.

🌀  Uncomfortable in a room if not holding a position of power or importance (usually the leader, rarely the follower).

🌀  Often play the hero and make sure others know all my sacrifices and hard work.

🌀  Subtly invalidate others’ power by trumping them, being contrary, or relentlessly drilling holes in their knowing.

🌀  Hard time being vulnerable with others and rarely let people know what I need.
