You are so right! Safety does come first. And it’s important to find that safety in yourself. Next comes self worth. You are a wise young lady. 💖

part of unmasking in my experience is listening to your gut feelings,"the little voice in the back of your head", and being fully honest with yourself on how things effect you and let yourself feel it

This really resonates. Wasn't diagnosed until 48. It's been 12 years. I'm just starting to understand I have no idea what healthy relationships look like. Therapy has helped.

Do you have a therapist or have you done a lot of self help/work? You’re very wise. ♥️

You hit an excellent, nuanced point in that it’s less about removing the mask and more about developing a better relationship with yourself. This is a good place to start with a healthier focus.

I love this! Create a safe environment, setting boundaries, learning to love your traits and individuality, then day by day becoming more and more unapologetically yourself ❤️

it kind of becomes clearer once you learn more and start to see at your past experience with a new angle. like I did this and this bc my caregiver only gave me positive attention when I did it.

I’ve never understood how people mask on purpose . I feel like I am unmasked most of the time and if I mask it is just something that kicks in w/out me deciding too!

My parents were not neglectful of my needs, my mom even tried to have me tested, I think I just masked from a young age.
