Like, I'm an adult now. I've got it. Don't worry about this.

And really that's what it comes down to is to try to, you know, take a moment and you try to like take a moment, just see what it feels like, like sit in a place quietly, breathe deeply,

And then what I want you to do is this is something I really would challenge you to do if you really are serious about healing this, is sit down with a pen and paper and write a letter to your younger self who picked up the role as the fixer or the one that had to be responsible. And you tell them what you needed to hear and feel as a kid. Tell them that they're safe,

Tell them that you can take it from here. Tell them that you appreciate them for all that they've done, for picking up this thing that they needed to because it made them feel safe, but now you guys can let go of it. Because when you do this, you might crack something up inside of you that's even deeper.

And that's okay because you don't heal from pushing stuff away and pushing emotions away and acting like it doesn't exist.

And so, you know, I want you to understand as you start to realize your control issues are not a character flaw, they're a coping mechanism that you've developed, that you didn't choose those early experiences.

If you want to let go of certain aspects of yourself, you can start to loosen your grip on these things. And loosening your grip isn't weakness, it's wisdom. It's going, hey, You know, I don't need this anymore. And you can let your nervous system learn a new story that you can surrender to certain things and surrendering can actually be strength.
