Quotes For Your Wounded Inner Child
For Weekly Mental Health Content
Many people that can relate to deep meaningful quotes have experienced a lot of loss, abuse, or other form of emotional pain.
This means you’re more likely to have formed negative thoughts about yourself, have anxiety, depression, PTSD and other thought cognitive beliefs that can be counterproductive for you.
If that sounds like something that applies to you, you might want to check out Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shift the thought patterns you commonly have, into healthier ones.
CBT is a form of psychotherapy that helps a person identify negative thought patterns so they can change them.
The underlying principle is that thought patterns are learned, and therefore can be unlearned.
Replacing negative thought patterns can improve symptoms for many mental health disorders in the DSM 5.
There is more information about CBT below.

A non profit organization that offers TONS of free support. They have individualized therapy and support groups for eating disorders, abuse, PTSD, dissociation, sexual trauma, grief and loss, self esteem, self care, men’s support groups, and substance abuse.
They have one on one services and group/workshops. I have joined many of their PTSD groups. I always felt safe & definitely felt connected with someone who’s understands.
Adult Children of Alcoholics & Dysfunctional Families | ACOA
Another amazing place to connect and practice self love. ACOA changed my life. I know that many others feel the same admiration for this program. There are thousands of groups and they all have their own flavor. If you don’t like one, try another! They have guidelines to ensure that you feel safe. It’s all free.
You never have to turn on a camera or mic, or speak at all. I sometimes just join to listen to others. Don’t be turned off if you’re not from an alcoholic family; alcohol aside; there are tons of people that are just as welcome as anyone else.
Lack of self love is a common theme within the group that unfortunately, many experience. Many times it is because of the environment we were forced to endure. Dysfunction and abuse comes in a lot of forms and so many people come together and accept each other, as they are, in ACOA. I like the humor within the groups. Listening to the stories and hearing what others have learned is pretty insightful too.
