Well Well Well..
Are we not all a little damaged and seeking validation and approval. Also respect ?
For people who suffer from abandonment issues it's a totally normal thing to be anxious, to see only unreliable, unpredictable people out there
To be angry at how people are uncontrollable. To sometimes be so so angry at life that it constantly brings changes about and disappointments.
What I observed and experienced at times is that people with Abandonment issues sometimes are avoidant and even aloof .. their pain was so big in the past that they are numb now..
From when we were hurt in the past we developed strong walls, strong behaviors, strong thought patterns, believes, opinions
We sometimes even aggressively punish people who dare to come close to our past wounds/ who are trying to 'help us'
We are not seen as weak or such even though our inner/ deepest core is very soft and sometimes if not always a little child/ our inner child that is still longing for healing
When we become aware of our own behaviour
When we start seeing that running away from potential pain is a way stronger mission for us then opening up to the magic and mysteries of life
WE START UNDERSTANDING WHY our relationships are all so freakin messy and hurtful
have a deep listen
this won't be the only episode about this complex topic :D
with love

Hello,
Unknown:and welcome to the Borealis experience. I'm your host
Unknown:Aurora, and I'm very happy to be spending some time with you
Unknown:today. It is spring it is warm weather. I couldn't be happier.
Unknown:yet. Today I chose a topic that is really hard to Yeah, reflect
Unknown:about for some people. abandonment, abandonment issues,
Unknown:nun abandonment, siesta have difficulties expressing it. It's
Unknown:a tricky thing, because most people who should listen to this
Unknown:episode will probably not listen to the episode because people
Unknown:who have abandonment issues don't really identify with it or
Unknown:are not aware of their behavior. It is people who come across as
Unknown:very secure on the surface, yet, when you scratch a little bit on
Unknown:the external, you will very quickly see that that person is
Unknown:incredibly insecure with who they are. And they make their
Unknown:life and other people's life incredibly tough and miserable
Unknown:at times. Not all the time. But especially when it comes to
Unknown:Yeah, relationships, intimate relationships, romantic
Unknown:relationships. But also, relationships with your
Unknown:siblings, your parents, when you suffer from abandonment issues.
Unknown:You see yourself often as a victim, you don't walk around
Unknown:like a victim. But you're very controlling, maybe even
Unknown:aggressive, sometimes aggressive to a point where you surprise
Unknown:yourself. Sometimes you say something, you react in a way
Unknown:where you're like, Whoa, what was that? But you just think oh,
Unknown:yeah, I was I was a little bit impatient. I'm, I'm aggressive.
Unknown:Yeah. But you will not dig deep enough to find out that it is
Unknown:your wounded little internal child that is screaming for
Unknown:attention that is screaming, to not be left behind and rejected
Unknown:again. It is a wound that we learned to work around, and to
Unknown:mask and to kind of Ward ourselves off from because it is
Unknown:so painful to go back. It is so painful to go back to that
Unknown:experience. When you were maybe in kindergarten, and that one
Unknown:child that you absolutely lewdly wanted to be friends with.
Unknown:didn't want to be friends with you. Or it was your parents
Unknown:dropping you off at kindergarten, first day. And you
Unknown:couldn't make sense of why you would have to adjust and live in
Unknown:a new environment. Now. You see trauma from an outsider's
Unknown:perspective, from your perspective now as an adult,
Unknown:compared to when you were a child can look like so
Unknown:ridiculous. Like you could see yourself crying. Because your
Unknown:mom left you at the kindergarten and as an adult, you would just
Unknown:think, Oh my god, I was such a sissy. But back then you were
Unknown:really in pain. There is no such thing as drama. People always
Unknown:feel exactly what they feel in the moment. And if you think it
Unknown:is drama of him, like totally invalidated, then you're doing
Unknown:wrong, is that person not being healed from that pain. And if
Unknown:you don't heal from that pain, you will come up with pretty
Unknown:awesome reactions and tools on how to avoid that pain. So what
Unknown:does a person with abandonment issues look like? They usually
Unknown:say people are so unreliable. People suck. I hate people. You
Unknown:can never plan with people that love to plan. They're
Unknown:unpredictable. People with abandonment issues, love to
Unknown:control and time as a huge thing. That's what yeah, I
Unknown:experienced it. expose my partners to back then is
Unknown:you can blame a lot of people and shame them when it comes to
Unknown:punctuality, or when it comes to Oh, you didn't get back to me
Unknown:right away, you waited so long you read my message, and then
Unknown:you never got back to me. So what's wrong with that? People
Unknown:with abandonment issues, of course, are also very insecure
Unknown:when it comes to other people. They don't show it from the
Unknown:inside. But internally, if you were able to have a look at
Unknown:their thoughts, they go crazy mentally, when they know their
Unknown:partner has opposite sex friends, or maybe still contact
Unknown:to their exes. Or maybe, yeah, they behave very differently
Unknown:when it comes to timing. Maybe, yeah, they didn't learn to be on
Unknown:time, they don't value being on time. And now here you stand
Unknown:waiting for them. 15 minutes, 17 minutes, 20 minutes, and going
Unknown:absolutely bonkers. And you blame it on them, sorry, them
Unknown:not being on time, and them not being able to stick to that
Unknown:simple rule of being punctual. Yet it is your little Wounded
Unknown:Child that is screaming for attention. And that is screaming
Unknown:at you. Not wanting to go through pain of rejection and
Unknown:feeling abandoned again. So again, it's not too much about
Unknown:going back in time and digging up old stories. But I sure
Unknown:encourage you to like if you can tell me in a conversation. Oh,
Unknown:yeah, I remember when I was five, we moved away. And my
Unknown:parents never made sure that I stay in contact with my friends.
Unknown:And I had to find new friends in that town we moved to and it was
Unknown:very hard on me. And it was very sad times and I couldn't
Unknown:communicate it because I was still a child. Well, that's a
Unknown:deep wound. That's deep trauma. And I don't know what it is a
Unknown:lot of people just hate that word trauma or want to see
Unknown:themselves as absolutely invincible from birth on. But if
Unknown:you look at it, we were all so cozy and warm. In our mother's
Unknown:womb, everything was provided was warm. We didn't have to care
Unknown:about anything. And then you're being literally splashed out
Unknown:into this world where all of a sudden, you have to breathe, you
Unknown:have to eat, you have to drink, you have to have shelter, and
Unknown:warmth. And you need physical and emotional connection,
Unknown:otherwise you're not going to survive. So fuck that already.
Unknown:So if you didn't go through any trauma, birth, itself is such a
Unknown:huge trauma, if you want to look at it, that it doesn't surprise
Unknown:me that there's so many people out there depressed because they
Unknown:don't see that those experiences are traumatizing. And after
Unknown:that, we manipulate we do everything to get our needs met,
Unknown:to an extent that it hurts ourselves and other people.
Unknown:That's how screwed up it is. But you have to see that those maybe
Unknown:little things for you now, back then were intense. And the
Unknown:feelings you had were real. And your little brain back then that
Unknown:was still forming, was trying now to avoid that pain and was
Unknown:trying to get better and to provide better and, and to be
Unknown:safe again. And in control being in control. I will post an
Unknown:episode about OCD. He has sown oppressive controlling behavior,
Unknown:you know, I'll go more into detail that but can wanting to
Unknown:control. And being aggressive when it comes to control is the
Unknown:behavior of a deeply insecure person. And they are suffering
Unknown:and the people around them are suffering. And this is why I'm
Unknown:getting so intense with it because I was in that spot for
Unknown:so long. And I'm feeling so much better now. And I want people to
Unknown:be like to reaching that point faster. I want to provide people
Unknown:with a shortcut that they don't sit in this misery as long as I
Unknown:was maybe 10 years or longer.
Unknown:So if this was deeply triggering for you, if you feel like Oh my
Unknown:god, I have abandonment issues. And I don't know how to deal
Unknown:with it my relationships. In the past, I realized now I've
Unknown:manipulated and it is also said, trust me, you're not alone with
Unknown:this and you can always reach out. And you can start talking
Unknown:about it with me or with people around you because it's not
Unknown:something uncommon. We all suffer from that to some degree.
Unknown:And it's not something to be ashamed of it is so beautiful to
Unknown:become aware of your behavior, to then live a more fulfilled
Unknown:life and to be happy in your relationships, your
Unknown:relationships, our life, the way you relate to your environment,
Unknown:to your family, to your friends, to your partner, is deeply
Unknown:nourishing you on every little level that there is. So if I can
Unknown:do something, to make you feel better about yourself, for you,
Unknown:to then have better relationships, then you make me
Unknown:the happiest person here on planet Earth. Because it is too
Unknown:sad to see that some people still struggle with control and
Unknown:with disappointment and with attachment. And we want to
Unknown:alleviate this pain, we want to help people get out of the
Unknown:suffering and make people are aware of it, which is not always
Unknown:comfortable. You know, I'm not always comfortable waking people
Unknown:up and telling the truth and also calling myself out on my
Unknown:bullshit. But it's the only way the only way out is through it.
Unknown:And through it means in this case, reflect about what hurt
Unknown:you in the past and have compassion for yourself. Know
Unknown:that you didn't put on a show, know that you didn't like create
Unknown:drama for nothing, it is how you felt. And you have to validate
Unknown:how you felt in the past, to validate yourself now in the
Unknown:present, and to be a stronger, better future self. It is only
Unknown:with awareness with shining light onto the shadow that we
Unknown:can change things. And the only thing you can change on this
Unknown:planet Earth is yourself. You cannot change other people, you
Unknown:can only inspire people to look a little deeper and to reflect.
Unknown:But if they're not ready for it, they will harshly reject you.
Unknown:And you cannot take a personal you cannot take anything
Unknown:personal on this planet Earth. Because it is all changing. It
Unknown:is all unpredictable. And that's the mystery and the beauty of
Unknown:life. You can learn to trust yourself again, and you can
Unknown:trust your judgment, your observations, without analyzing
Unknown:a lot of times, people with abandonment issues, analyze so
Unknown:much. And put people into boxes way too much. Just because they
Unknown:want things to go exactly their way. Because everything else is
Unknown:so scary. To open your mind to a new way of approaching
Unknown:relationships. Or maybe starting a family or living your life is
Unknown:so freakin scary. If you and your little mind thought, this
Unknown:is exactly how it has to be. Otherwise, I'm going to get
Unknown:hurt. So I'm going to stop right here and invite you to maybe
Unknown:meditate on this pick a meditation. And let us all sink
Unknown:in. Especially if you feel like this is you or this is a person
Unknown:that you really love. Think about what I just said. And
Unknown:yeah, reflect about it. And then know that I will be out there
Unknown:very soon again, and keep talking about this. Because it
Unknown:is way too important. To not be talking about us. It's a very
Unknown:simple thing to do to reflect about yourself and to then
Unknown:adjust and change to live a better life and I want to be
Unknown:there for you on your journey. Alright, take really good care
Unknown:of yourself. Thanks for enjoying the Borealis experience podcast.
Unknown:Until next time, bye bye
