Nice job with the continued focus on you and accountability. When I read this list, though, it didn't look that bad.

These first three are things you've experienced. They contribute to your views and feelings, but they don't define you.

These next three are how you feel a lot of the time, because of those views of the world and your situation.

This last group is how you act on those feelings when inattentive. There is a lot of overlap between these as it's the same issue leaking out in different ways.
My point is that really you can boil this down to: I went through crap, and to cope I dissociated from my emotions, since when I have been trying to force someone else to take care of me so I wouldn't have to, but am now realizing that doesn't work so am learning to live with and take care of myself.
Keep focused on that and everything else will magically fall into place.
