I've been unable to write in my journal lately. I have found a resource that I'm working with about healing my inner child. It seems to be the popular topic lately, too. It's been very helpful thus far, and I'm glad I've begun this work. It's amazing how badly I've been treating myself.
I have been keeping myself in fairly good order, too. I have caught myself thinking about my inner "Helcia" and giving her hugs and telling her that we'll be fine. I think I've mostly gotten over the fear of becoming a split personality by acknowledging her and talking with her. I have also caught myself asking how old I felt during a situation, and realized my reactions were from that age.
One thing right now is that I'm becoming less angry at my parents, though I don't think I should be. I am working on getting mad at them again (in a good way, of course.)
I'm so grateful to be doing this! The one thing I need now, though, is an actual ACoA group up here, and I'd be set!!!
