I recently wrote to my T that the more I am able to assist young people in their struggles, the more my inner child trusts me to rescue her also. In a classic way, I was contacted yesterday by a young woman whom I mentored a while ago and helped enroll in college as one step toward freeing her from a family that had abandoned her. Anyway, she got in touch and let me know how well she continues to do. Several hours later, I got triggered by a situation at home that brought me in very close contact with my hurt inner child. She needed for me to do for her what I routinely do for others. I did my best, and then had to smile at the irony of the timing.
Recovering from cptsd and codependence is hard work. But sometimes, there are breakthroughs. The Universe appears to listen to my stories to my T and to my self talk and chooses opportunities to enter into the conversation.
