Can you provide something on prejudice or discrimination on the Emotional Wounds Thesaurus?

I believe we have something about divorce on our master list, Dylan. 🙂

It is amazing how things that happen to us as children and young adults are so hard to shake. Some things leave such an imprint, it is hard to shake.

Not as in paranoia, but being seen. This comes from being ignored or criticized so often when you were growing up. If you are doing something good or clever or something you are proud of, it’s as though you are thinking to yourself: “See? Here I am. Look at me now. I survived everything you shot at me.” This last lifelong, and I suppose is some sort of survival mechanism.

This is a good one!!! I can see myself and others I know in this one. Although I grew up, am accomplished in my field, am a good person – how one is brought up is always with a person. It takes years of therapy and meditation to get past the negative feelings about oneself and it’s a struggle even when you are old. But that’s the task of self realization for those who bother – we do the best we can. And for those that don’t bother, they live in a fog and in lots of pain for the rest of their lives. — Thanks for this very, very insightful post!
