#inner child healing
cozy reading time ⭐️
Once you go no contact with the abuser, then starts the inner work of changing how you speak to yourself
It takes a lot of mental/emotional energy that I just don’t have anymore… once you realize you can let the emotions flow and let them pass and move through them… you just let them flow… life is not as much of a fight anymore
It feels like I have to protect my inner child by keeping her from running into the arms of people who aren’t safe
If you’re recovering from a relationship with a narcissist and find yourself longing for the lovebombing, know that’s completely valid and to be expected (that’s why they do it)
At the time the love bombing was happening you believed it was real so it still provided healing soothing benefit to your heart at the time even if later it feels like it was all fake
They were mirroring you so it was like you were being love bombed by yourself which you can do now
Any tenderness they showed you, space they held for you, compliments they gave you- you can give these to yourself, I promise
You can keep your inner child safe ☀️
Your heart can heal ❤️
If you want to heal
you have to work on it day by day
instead of pretending everything is okay.

You gave me a space
where I could break
and I could ache
without looking at me
like I was broken

We’re taught to care more about appearances than how we feel and so we focus more on an illusion than what is real. We stay on the surface instead of going deep to heal.
