My husband has been working on that for years now (his mom) and I think it's so helpful to gather the experiences of others.

I'm so glad you've enjoyed some success. It's a terrible obstacle, to have this automatic voice, so ubiquitous in everything you do, every person you meet, every interaction you have telling you that you that you're inadequate, unworthy, incapable, weak, etc., etc., so on.

I'm very happy for you.
