How do I survive while shameless?
is a question I have.
I haven't been liking posting here for a while. But this is a question I think best fits this sub. I hope no one attacks me this time and only if you have a kind response and positive regard respond. And no invalidating. I then will reconsider posting here after that. That's what I wanna post now
I don't wanna get too much into my parts and explain anything here because I don't feel safe to (anymore). But basically:
Shame is about survival. That's probably why I have shame. It's for survival purpose. When someone is a child, it serves the purpose of survival.
There's a question and if someone here can answer it with knowledge and compassion, and positive regard, that would be good.
Shame is for survival. Shame wants the person to survive. Shame hides parts of self because that was safe or it provided survival at some point.. and that's the worldview it has now too. I understand shame in that regard. But there's a message from the outside that people can live without shame and not only that, but they live well. So for the shame that's there for survival, it just wonders and asks very genuinely: how can someone survive while shameless? How would the person survive outside dangers without shame? And how would the human's parts that are hidden by shame (for protection) be like if they got targeted or hurt (especially that they're raw and without shame protecting or covering them)
