Many of us who were discouraged from expressing our feelings became chronically disconnected from ourselves. Whether we call it self-abandonment or codependency, we never developed the inner compass needed to recognize and meet our own needs. Again and again, we chose relationships and jobs we knew were wrong for us, yet we couldn’t quite trust our own feelings or have faith in ourselves. To borrow from Alice Miller, recovery "is not a homecoming, since this home has never before existed. It is the creation of home."
