It is a matter of need and fullfilling the needs. I realize that in my worst moments, my intellect was absolutely negating, rejecting all my emotional reality. So I think I have to learn to respect, accept my emotional needs, my emotional reality (and also my personality, which is reliant on that reality). That seems to be such a hard work, since what I learned from others in my early life was that my needs and emotions were not something that deserved any respect or consideration. Since then my reality is aimed on 'being okay', avoiding rejection (which eventually causes it), and geez it's hard to see what a mess they made inside of me. I always have trouble talking about that because I fear poeple will judge me acting like a victim. But I know what is true for me, so I won't accept being judged.
