Your self-realizations and goal setting are inspiring to me! I'm so impressed by the work you have been doing for yourself
I too had a household where boundaries were a little fuzzy. I was an only child and both parents were beyond smart so it was ok to get into a heated argument/discussion when facts and figures were being used... but as soon as an emotion was brought up... "I think we need to take a break and come back when we can talk rationally" So I was taught to never express emotions to them, but I had to learn to deal/process them on my own. I've only recently learned how this upbringing was damaging my M because I never let my H feel that it was ok to talk about emotions- I always tried to distract or brush under the rug.
Continue to leap, jump and fly forward!! You've made some great progress and I think the future looks good for you!!
