She'd recognize this is similar to times in my past when I was little and I would get beaten. However what's different in this situation? I am in my own house, I am safe now, I am an adult, there's nobody that is going to beat me and encouraging her to notice what was similar and triggering, but also what was different. Recognizing there is part of her that is wounded child but how are you different now? Not subject to stay in situation she is being abused.

So what causes the imposter syndrome. It has to do with personality traits but also family backgrounds. Oftentimes people who feel like imposters talk about coming from families where high achieving was emphasized. You had to have straight A's, to be best. Yet in the same time they were criticized for anything that they did wrong. So there's lots of nitpicking. No matter how hard – it is not good enough, you don't feel good enough.

How you get over feeling like imposter? Well it's not really a very fair question because it's not something to get over, it's not like an attitude that you can just change. "Today I'm not going to feel like imposter". Because at the root of the syndrome of beliefs you've learned growing up, dysfunctional family of some sort, where you don't measure up, it is not good enough. Understand how powerful these beliefs are.

Beliefs are almost like a living entity. They can get people very aroused. Think about belief people have about religion, politics, sporting events. Where people get very excited and emotionally aroused. And if something challenges their beliefs people can get very upset and aroused to the point where people can get violent, hurt other to defend their belief. So inner belief of being fraud has a lot of energy that you can't just turn off. Explore.

He was constantly looking for a fight, massively argumentative, things either get his way or there'll be trouble. He starts to be quite controlling. It's not enough to see he's physically shifted, more confident. That's not payoff he is looking for. He looks for people always assuming he is correct. And if not, there will be consequences.

When you think about intimate relationships, we have to collaborate. Sometimes we have to compromise. We can disagree, that disagreement to be acceptable. We are different people, we have different agenda, core values. And if you are somebody who is not willing to see that then you can ultimately become quite coercive in the way you treat people. Have them act in a way you consider acceptable and appropriate or there will be trouble.

Body replays the trauma over and over as somatic signs and symptoms.

If we know that and we can access it that something so severe can actually change in moments. Having an explosion it's almost like you get jolted out of your body.

We see everything intuited in space and time hence all objects of an experience possible to us are nothing but appearances i.e mere representations. Which as they are represented as extended beings or a series of alterations, have outside our thoughts no existed granted in itself.

Transcendental means this claim about objects as they exist outside of our experience that these objects of our experience are ideal. And ideal means without existence independently of our minds. This is opposite of real which means with existence independently of our minds. Objects have their independent existence outside the realm of our possible experience. Outside of our experience that God might experience or look at things.

When God looks at these objects, s/he would see that these objects are not independent existent things of our mind in that transcendental realm.
Empirical realism is that objects exist independently of our minds within our experience: objects exist independently of our minds, we don't determine them with our thoughts, we don't make them with our whims.
Your soul might leave that realm then you would see those things don't exist independent

For Plato what is true are forms. For Kant it's the opposite – Kant thinks what is within our experience is what is really real. Objects of our experience are real in one sense and real in another. If we can take something in more than one sense we can avoid contradiction. So objects of our experience are real, they exist independently of our mind: we can't determine them with our thoughts. At the same time they are ideal. We transcend that realm.

A belief is something that is considered correct and true. Person can believe in various things such as cultural or personal faith, morality or values. It expresses viewpoints but it is not based on facts or evidence. A belief is also an opinion which is why it cannot serve as basis for a formal argument. Beliefs are very personal ideas and cannot be rejected because they express an opinion. Also these beliefs are not mandatory to change completely.

I'm integrating my experience, allowing my physical body, my somatic body to move through the cycle that needs to go through. So that the emotion finds a place of rest. My initial response is trying to get rid of shame, trying to convince myself everything's ok. That is form of resistance. It's my reflex, it is painful to feel, it hurts, I don't want to be in that space. Acknowledge it and warm and peace started to show up in the body. Let my shame be known

Quentin as Englishman in New York reminds me of Oscar Wilde coming to America in the 19th century. He finds in New York a perfect market economy, that's interested in precisely eccentrics. At one point he says America tolerates eccentrics, if you are eccentric in any way Americans think you are selling something. And in a way you are. He is ultimate product for sale in New York.

With personality disorder people are in touch with reality but they put a spin on it. Like all-or-nothing thinking, jumping to conclusions, like blaming other people for their own behavior. Understanding they don't have as much control over their personality as the average person does. Arguing, blaming them just make things worse.

All of the high conflict people tend to have charming potential. And that's why in dating we tell people wait a year before you make a major commitment like getting married, buying a house or having a child. Because you maybe just not seeing the whole person that over the course of 12 months you usually see the whole person. But over 3 months or 6, you don't know.

But at first they're charming, friendly, ordinary. They're very ordinary in most ways. But when you get close is when you eventually start seeing. Personality disorder is basically about close relationship behavior.

High conflict people and people with personality disorders don't have self-awareness. They don't really look at themselves and that's why they are stuck. They don't change the part that they can change. You can't change another person, only your part, how you interact with other people. 80, 90% of people say oops, what did I do wrong there, what can I do different in the future. That's a big thing that personality disordered people don't do.

You can't point this out to them because you'll trigger incredible defensiveness and blame. They'll blame you and say It's you. "It's all your fault". They'll tend to be blaming.

If somebody acts slightly different, than other folks their tendency is to be excluded from stuff. Some of it also was my perception. I think human beings are going to draw wrong conclusions at times just because we don't necessarily have all the information. Human beings are the worst at observing their own behavior. We have tendency of drawing conclusions based on interactions with others without being able to observe our own reactions.

Their controlled pattern towards you implies "I'm mess inside", that's why they have to get you to act right because there's so much chaos on the inside that they can't clear out on their own. They imply "I'm going to fall apart if you don't offer me your conformity", "Make me feel good so that I can be ok in this moment".
"You should be ashamed for not giving me what I want". That is part of their codependency. Have little substance inside to draw.

Narcissist will compliment you, and make you feel good, when it is in their interest. The narcissist will criticize you, demean you, belittle you, when it is in their interest. It really has nothing to do with you. So if you take NOTHING personally the narcissist – not the good stuff, not the bad stuff; don't take it personally. The narcissist will project onto you what they feel about themselves, they'll call you narcissist.

The boundaries really require you to protect yourself. Because if you simply try to navigate it by getting the other person to understand what they're doing wrong, narcissists don't think they're doing anything wrong. Ever. Which leads back to that "as is", because they'll never change, because they don't think it's their problem. Believe behavior, not words. If I stay my behavior is communicating.

We treat our triggers as something to get rid of, something to fix, something that is problem, something that signifies that we're broken, that we're flawed. That we are deeply damaged, we're irreparable. So there can be a lot of shame, pain when it comes to triggers. Trigger overwhelms us and we have automatic reaction that doesn't necessarily make sense to situation at hand. "I'm going to get hurt" and we have big reaction

Wounded inner children think abusive people are just making a choice to not be good towards them. Or be loving towards them. Instead of knowing that toxic people are not capable of being good and being loving towards somebody. Spending time looking for secret magic code about how to get your parent to be happy or to engage with you, or to become more loving with you- that secret code is really codependency.

As kids, we did a lot of that because children do not see the toxicity in their parents. They just see that the parent is making a choice because the kid is bad, the kid is unlovable... So we grow up into adults not looking at abusive people for what they are. We tend to ignore a pathology around people being incapable of loving because we only are looking for that magic key about how to wake somebody up.

With friends and partners later in life I would vacillate between upset by something and then hate myself for being so bothered by the thing and I would gaslight myself.

Anxiety could possible be normal. We actually all have a degree of neuroticism, one of the Big 5 personality traits. So we know that anxiety is part of everyone's personality to some degree and of course some people are higher in a trait of neuroticism than others. Person generally anxious about everything, driving, picking, making right decision everything they do.
Neuroticism is part of our personality structure, everybody has it.
