What are the most common trauma beliefs
HumanFirstTherapy •
• I am not enough / not good enough → I am lacking, incomplete.
• I am too much → My real self is overwhelming, unsafe for others.
• I am unloveable → No matter what I do, I cannot be accepted.
• I am not doing enough → My worth is conditional, tied to constant effort.
In summary, the idea that there is something wrong with me, and because of that I don’t deserve love or belonging.
Different words, same core: a fracture in the sense of worthiness and belonging. An explanation to self of why pain shows up in our lives
