An audio journal discussing my relationship with coping mechanisms (porn, food, alcohol/drugs, spending money, avoiding, etc.): what they offer me, how they hinder me, and how I've watched them shift. I also talk about: when SOOTHING becomes SELF-HARM; coping mechanisms as SURVIVAL strategies; FEAR of INTIMACY and touch; my Dad's burnout/depression; addiction & bulimia; binge-eating; understanding "I am my parents and I am also not my parents"; the POWER of understanding my emotions; being hard on my self (and learning COMPASSION); identifying STORIES; NOT fixing my self; the gaslighting experience; learning how to BELONG; avoidance; and SO much more!
