@PeppyPatti  "All emotions have an evolutionary purpose; they signify an unmet need or potential threat to survival."

 

so true.  mine are daddy issues.  having a adopted dysfunctional father and not knowing my birth father has fd me up.  I need a strong man who takes on that role in a healthy way that i feel secure and safe in the relationship.  i believe i have found that man at long last.

I can never work out what my needs are either! Needs? Those are things other people have. I guess that I am not very in touch with my emotions 

Re: Best Friends Club

Oh @Bunniekins iv been thinking about that from @Jynx too.

 

Generational. My ancestors gave had same emotion. It got then through. Should get me through.

I come from a long line of highly strung Jewish hungarian women. I thought via therapy ide stop that pattern. But @Jynx teaching me to own every little emotion and break that boundry by owning and understanding it. 

 

I wrote to husband - 

Please work with me together to understand my how the head injury issues change me in our daily life. Show empathy - try and put yourself in my shoes and imagine what it would be like to deal with my invisible challenges. A little empathy goes a long wayi. Firi instance i repeat myself over and over again. - what do you think that would ne like for me when I'm talking to other people ?

Re: Best Friends Club

@PeppyPatti   i also come from a jewish polish/german line of women on my adoptive mothers side so i get what you mean there.  i think what you have written is heart felt.  go with it.  you are a intelligent sensitive soul x

Re: Best Friends Club

@PeppyPatti  so proud of you right now. Gave me tears of joy ( @Jynx )

You have had a huge breakthrough.

@Jynx taught me about sitting with my feelings.

If you want your needs met, you got to know what your needs are.

BIG HUGS 🤗
