I attack myself constantly for not getting enough done. I'm usually so busy attacking myself for not getting enough done that I can hardly concentrate on the job I'm currently trying to do (!!)

I've been there too and know exactly how it feels. I was stuck in every aspect of my life because of my self-attack: work, school, relationships, and overall well-being. I was shell-shocked by my own self-attack, in addition to the emotional trauma inflicted on me by the toxic people in my life. I'm still not where I want to be but I know I'm on the path now, and that gives me hope. Hugs to you, and peace for your journey! |

Hard to say. Some do, sure, others do it involuntarily or without realizing the damage they do. Regardless, it can cause a lot of problems down the road. Mental abuse can be just as bad as physical abuse, don't underestimate it. Do something with it, try to get it out of your system one way or another. May take a while, but it's better to get it out than to keep it bottled up. |

The emotional abuser installed the inner critic in us and that’s why we beat ourselves up, IMHO. Also, I think they emotionally abuse because that’s the way to control you to do what they want. __________________ "And don't say it hasn't been a little slice of heaven, 'cause it hasn't!" .

I know from personal experience emotional abuse can result in depression. I was emotionally abused by my mother for years. I suffered short term ie low self esteem, and long term major depression I hope you find the support you need. Hugs
