"Passei o dia numa ilha. Uma senhora simpática, vendo-me a olhar para uma estante no seu restaurante, deixou-me levar um livro emprestado. Isto foi o máximo que consegui ler antes da hora de apanhar o barco para regressar a casa.

Fico à espera de reencontrar o livro numa biblioteca para terminar a leitura. :)"

“Whatever the level of parental failure, emotionally neglected people see themselves as the problem, rather than seeing their parents as having failed them.”
Jonice Webb, Running on Empty: Overcome Your Childhood Emotional Neglect

Jonice Webb
“You may have a general sense that you’re missing something that everybody else has, or that you’re on the outside looking in. Something just isn’t right, but it’s hard to name. It makes you feel somehow set apart, disconnected, as if you’re not enjoying life as you should.”
Jonice Webb, Running on Empty: Overcome Your Childhood Emotional Neglect

Jonice Webb
“Because depressed parents appear put-upon, beleaguered or overwhelmed by the ordinary demands of parenting, their children don’t always learn that they are worthwhile and so are at risk to become depressed themselves in adulthood.”
Jonice Webb, Running on Empty: Overcome Your Childhood Emotional Neglect

Jonice Webb
“There is a minimal amount of parental emotional connection, empathy and ongoing attention which is necessary to fuel a child’s growth and development so that he or she will grow into an emotionally healthy and emotionally connected adult. Less than that minimal amount and the child becomes an adult who struggles emotionally–outwardly successful, perhaps, but empty, missing something within, which the world can’t see.”
Jonice Webb, Running on Empty: Overcome Your Childhood Emotional Neglect

Lindsay C. Gibson
“Because they’re so attuned to feelings, internalizers are extremely sensitive to the quality of emotional intimacy in their relationships. Their entire personality longs for emotional spontaneity and intimacy, and they can’t be satisfied with less. Therefore, when they’re raised by immature and emotionally phobic parents, they feel painfully lonely. If there’s anything internalizers have in common, it’s their need to share their inner experience. As children, their need for genuine emotional connection is the central fact of their existence. Nothing hurts their spirit more than being around someone who won’t engage with them emotionally. A blank face kills something in them. They read people closely, looking for signs that they’ve made a connection. This isn’t a social urge, like wanting people to chat with; it’s a powerful hunger to connect heart to heart with a like-minded person who can understand them. They find nothing more exhilarating than clicking with someone who gets them. When they can’t make that kind of connection, they feel emotional loneliness. From”
