I recently had a huge breakthrough where I discovered that the cause of my current depression and anxiety was actually emotional trauma as a little girl. I became very overweight when I was only about 9 and my father would tell me right to my face that I was fat. It was the earliest I can remember losing my sense of self-worth. I have realized that emotionally, I still AM that little girl, and that's why I can't cope with my current life situations. I litterally feel like I am a little girl inside, and it makes me scared and intimidated around people. Anyone else have anything like this? What happened, and how did you learn to heal the pain?

I'm not sure that I can say that I understand *exactly*, but I have some odd little tendancies that come from in childhood that I might PM you about if you wish. I'm sorry that you had to go through this, and I'm not sure how to help you heal. I'm always here if you'd like to talk. ^.^
I often feel like I'm fat. I've had people tell me this in the past, along with a bunch of other s**t. It's totally ruined my self-esteem and it really sucks. I'm not sure what to tell you to help you heal, but please hang in there.
I promise things will get better.
Take care.

I have no self-worth. In fact, that word isn't even in my vocabulary. I only wrote it in my first sentence because I looked it up.
Well, that's sarcasm, but you get my point.
My old therapist told me that we all have different aspects of our personality that are comprised of all sorts of different people. One of yours might be a little girl, a man, an old woman, etc. She said that when we feel like one of them, then we have to embrace it, because it's trying to tell us something that our unconscious needs.
But she was a looney....

I dont feel any self-worth. My depression was brought on by my close uncles death or so my physicatrist. Also many more family problems. I also suffer with panic attacks. If anyone suffers with depression and need some who understands to talk to I really would like to talk to you. I have no one that understands me, no friends no family. Please PM me if anyone wants a friend.
