“Honour your own instincts, your memories, and the ways that they wind through your body. Don't disregard your own history or the lessons that you have already learned, even on a subconscious level. Also, don't disregard what we've learned on an informational basis about the transmission of beliefs, narratives, behaviors, and personality parts from abuser to abusee, or the likelihood of you responding in similar ways to those similar situations, ways that you're really trying to rewire out of your brain.”
