Never ignore professional clinical advice in seeking treatment because of something you have read or heard on social media. Reparenting work is enhanced with clinical support.
The inner child is often burdened with painful emotions and experiences. Their inner system has created protectors/managers to keep the inner child hidden and exiled.
