Thursday
Hello there 👋🏽 I hope you’re having a lovely Thursday.

How do we know that our Inner Child is present?
When you are truly feeling your feelings, you are allowing your inner child to be. Your inner child is active when you are being playful, spontaneous, creative, intuitive and surrendering to the spiritual self. When you experience
joy, sadness, anger, fear or affection your child within is coming out.

When the inner child is wounded.
Almost all of us have some inner child healing to do. It is hard for us to be whole and happy adults without bringing the inner child into our lives and thereby healing it.
When we meet our inner child, we often discover that some of our ove, guidance, respect, trust and safety. The lack of these basic needs may have brought about a state of chronic anxiety, fear, shame, anger and despair in our inner child.

Therapist Tip 👉🏻The Power of 'NO': the word "no" is a 'boundary'. It is a word that establishes or defines the space between you & someone else. It demands respect & is supposed to be learnt learnt through childhood development. It is a universal cue that people use #boundaries
to let others know that you are not OK about something. Boundaries are designed to keep you safe &/or establish ground rules for the relationship. One of the earliest indicators of #RedFlags in toxic people/relationships is a lack of Respect/empathy for the word "no" #SafetyFirst
This lack of respect is an 'indicator' that someone has a character/personality problem &/or flaw. If a person in your life refuses to listen or respect your "no", you may need help because you now have a 'relational' problem

Brainstorming - this probably won't makes sense.

Why categories are better than dimensions for personality disorder classification: dimensional traits are unitary constructs, sub-factors, or unique facets. Categories are multi-factorial. People are not simply entities

1/
consisting of different amounts of a set of facets. They are complex, dynamic, and motivated beings wherein beliefs, desires, and actions don't always align. Ambivalence often reigns supreme. Behavior is multiply determined and their personality is best understood in terms

2/
of theoretically coherent interrelated domains such as motivation and interpersonal style; wherein content defines the domains; rather than the domains themselves being identical to the content.

3/3
