quote:
Secure attachment relationships in childhood and psychotherapy help develop this reassuring internal presence by presence by providing us with experiences of being recognized, understood, and cared for that can subsequently be internalized.


This statement scares me as I never did develope secure relationships in my child. For 3 years I was away from home every winter living in other peoples homes. During that time I was on my own. No family, no friends.
I pretty much internalized everything, even my feelings of loneliness. I never did show emotions, as I felt I was not allowed.

Makes the uphill battle seem awfully tough
