Dear Leentje,
I see you. You feel disgusted, afraid, jealous, angry, confused and unseen. How stressful, tiring and unfair. This is old pain. I will communicate your boundaries to protect your peace of mind, your need for autonomy and your emotions, if necessary with the help of others. I accept you. I respect you. We cannot control how people respond. How they respond is not your fault. You don’t deserve punishment. Believe: you can handle whatever comes your way. You got this. I believe in you. I am proud of you. You are of value the way you are. Receive acceptance, attention and love. You belong. Open up: look for and focus on proof that people – me included – are trustworthy. Stay. You are safe.
Much love,
Loreen
