“In that moment, your body is brought back to the period in your life when silence did mean something was seriously wrong. It’s like your body is time-traveling back to that experience, remembering your fear and panic and what you needed to do to feel okay again (e.g., soothe the other person, fixate on what you did wrong, or fawn in some other way).”

“You can be grateful for what your parents could give you emotionally and feel grief for what they couldn’t. You can have empathy for what your parents have gone through themselves and feel angry that you experienced what you did. You can acknowledge that your parents did their best with the awareness and resources they had at the time and acknowledge that their best still really hurt you.”

“When a child’s emotional needs are repeatedly unmet, they feel that they’re not worthy of receiving love, that they need to earn approval from others, since it won’t come naturally. With this belief there’s a deep fear of rejection or abandonment, because the child has learned that their needs don’t matter or are “too much.”
