Healing Abandonment
Abandonment. It’s a harsh word, and even harsher to experience personally in your life. It comes in many forms, and it makes you feel like you aren’t worth it to someone else. You aren’t important enough that they stuck around. Or truly listened to you, because not being really listened to and heard is another form of abandonment. Either way, you feel unimportant. This is why so many people in this situation, whether in childhood or adulthood, have depression and anxiety, and often borderline personality disorder, which I was told I had last year. I don’t trust the modern medical system at all, though, so of course I dismissed my doctor’s words, and have since stopped going to her, looking instead now for a doctor who practices a more holistic, naturopathic approach.
