this one really stuck out for me. the PERFECTIONISM bug. noticing thats why my room gets messy so quick and self-care is so hard beacause deep withing is this desire for perfection...
the word RESPONISIBILITY seems to be jumping out too. i think responsibilities are blurred in dysfunctional families and a lot of shite is placed on children particularly.
this made adulthood hard when i had to be responsible for myself and my own actions against myself and others, thats why the step 4 was so healing in that i learnt AWARENESS of other ways of doing things, how i did things, how emeshed i was with family members and that the guilt covered a deep heaving grief in realising the full extent of powerlessness over others.
