?? AFFIRM ??

Dear Leentje,

I see you. You feel ashamed, miserable, unseen, frustrated, discouraged, dissapointed and disgusted. How unfair and tiring. This is old pain. I will communicate your emotions, needs and boundaries, if necessary with the help of others. We cannot control how people respond. I respect you. You don’t have to be perfect. You don’t deserve to be punished. Believe: you can handle whatever comes your way. You got this. I believe in you. Receive love, acceptance and attention. You belong. You are loved. I am proud of you. You are of value the way you are. Open up: look for and focus on proof that people – including me – are trustworthy.

Much love,

Loreen
