John Bradshaw Quotes

There Is No Way You Can Share Your Inner Self Because You Are An Object Of Contempt To Yourself. When You Are Contemptible To Yourself, You Are No Longer In You. To Feel Shame Is To Feel Exposed In A Diminished Way. When You're An Object To Yourself, You Turn Your Eyes Inward, Watching And Scrutinizing Every Minute Detail Of Behavior. This Internal Critical Observation Is Excruciating. It Generates A Tormenting Self-consciousness That Kaufman Describes As "creating A Binding And Paralyzing Effect Upon The Self." This Paralyzing Internal Monitoring Causes Withdrawal, Passivity And Inaction. The Severed Parts Of The Self Are Projected In Relationships.
