When you come out of survival mode, you might feel really angry.

Anger is your body coming back to life:

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

If you start to cry any time you're upset or overwhelmed, you might feel embarrassed.

But, this is your body trying to balance itself.

Why We Cry:

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

5. Understand there will be guilt: when you start saying no, start having boundaries, and honoring your own needs you will feel guilty. This is a good sign you're beginning to end this pattern, not a sign that you're "bad" or "selfish"
