157 What If My Story Isn't That Bad? Why We All Tend to Minimize Our Wounds

157 What If My Story Isn't That Bad? Why We All Tend to Minimize Our Wounds

This episode is for people who experience emotional pain but feel like "nothing that bad happened to me growing up. I had a pretty good childhood." As it says in Jeremiah 6, it is very common to dress our wounds as though they are not serious. One way we tend to minimize our wounds is by comparing our story to someone else who "had it worse." Another way we minimize our wounds is by spiritualizing away the harmful experiences we endured with sentences like, "God used that terrible experience to shape my character." What is keeping you from having compassion for the harm you experienced as a boy or a girl? If the podcast has been helpful to you, please consider supporting it financially here.
