Should have done this first but thanks for your support PC.
I think I mentioned about doing this on another forum. Well, I did it to my closest friend in an email a few months ago. We've been friends for 33 years and if not for his understanding, I don't know.
Please know that while I'm hurting others I'm hurting myself. There's no switch to turn on and off. I'm a people pleaser by nature and I hate it when someone is upset about some bone head thing I did.
I talked to my therapist about this a few months ago and I said why am I doing this and sometimes don't even know how it's coming across or hurting people? He said if Carl Jung were here right now he would be talking about your Shadow Self. I have not read much on it but I think I need to find a dumbed down version to get it.thanks
We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.
