A few common characteristics of adults shamed in childhood:

  • You may suffer extreme shyness, embarrassment and feelings of being inferior to others. You don't believe you "make" mistakes, you believe you "are" a mistake.
  • You feel controlled from the outside and from within. You feel that normal spontaneous expression is blocked.
  • You may suffer from debilitating guilt; you apologize constantly.
  • You have little sense of emotional boundaries; you feel constantly violated by others; you frequently build false boundaries.

    If you see yourself in any of these characteristics, you can learn how shame keeps you from being the person you were born to be and how to change that. "Shame And Guilt" describes how debilitating shame is created and fostered in childhood and how it manifests itself in adulthood and in intimate relationships. Through the use of myths and fairytales to portray different shaming environments, Dr. Middelton-Moz allows you to reach the shamed child within you and to add clarity to what could be difficult concepts. Read "Shame and Guilt" - you're worth it.
