Hello
I went from super fit, working hard, productive, happy, positive and confident to burnout and agoraphobia as a back to school immigrant single mom. From straight As competing in tech with tough young men to dropping out.
So the win.
I have been doing inner work.
So i did a lot of this before, recovering grom narc abuse, which got me this far.
I thought i was fine and started grinding.
The win, though.
So i started tracking somatic sensations and working on childhood memories that came up. Opened up a can of worms.
With NLP, tapping, IFS, TCM etc
I now notice the issues shifting. The freeze thawing. Peace. Stilness. Silence.
It wasn't burnout. It was unaddressed stuff.
Related to the usual suspect: narc mom.
Not about her, not about blame. But about residue that needed resolution and presence.
So i feel it is a win. To finally begin to feel progress after the strangeness of the extinction burst. Of the old patterns and systems trying to make me small where i was "supposed ' to be. To realize that leaving the home country and working hard and making progress wasn't the end, the patterns still needed dismantling.
Because now i know, i can work on these things.
And i am making progress. Not flashy but real.
My inner me was still terrified of the narcMom. And self sabotaging to mollify her rage at my success. This is where i need to do the work.
Presence wirh inner me.
Grateful to God
