Guest guest Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 I have made some very positive changes over the past 2 months. LC with Nada. Unfortunately that couples my fada in with her cause he is trying to make changes but is still playing her game. Unfortunate for him. Anyway- since I have gone LC I have felt a new sense of freedom and a sense of who I AM! But- with some situations they are still in my head, and I experience FOG., even the hot sensation I get when nada attacks and manipulates. I know what choice I want to make, but I still hear them...how do you stop it? How do I get them out of my head? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 That is excellent, congrats on your progress! My suggestion is to fill your life with other activities and other people that have nothing to do with your foo (family of origin.) Go out and have fun, do charitable work, start a group, join a group that shares your interests. Take a class. Go see places you've never seen. That way your parents will occupy less of your thinking, and you'll make a joyful life for yourself outside of them. -Annie > > I have made some very positive changes over the past 2 months.

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Amy, I so know how you feel. I feel this especially after I've set strict boundaries with her and my brother gives me guilt trips. I don't have a definitive answer for you; for me, it's been very gradual. Her voice fades and last week, I caught myself and thought " oh my GOSH, I haven't thought about her all day!!! " It was awesome. Journaling has helped, reminding myself why I'm setting boundaries. Also, finding other interests and setting goals is great, too. They take my mind off her. Best wishes and congrats on the LC!! woo hooooo!!!
