Chapter 4 caused me to go bingeing....

[Guest guest]

Has this happened to anyone else?

I was trying to practice the EFT and I brought my fears into the present moment

and I suddenly started having panic attacks.

One of my fears is that I will not be a good mom. I fear that I will have a

child as confused as me about their self-worth and weight and he/she will suffer

like I have. Even worse than that, I fear my weight struggle will be the cause

of this. That if I am not thin and have not solved my food issues, then I will

pass this to my child and make him/her insecure and basically " screw him up " .

After that, I basically decided in my mind that I didn't want to have kids. But

I love children. My husband does too.

I spent 2 days bingeing. And today I finally had time to actually do the EFT.

I went from:

Even though I fear I will be a bad mom and screw up my child, I deeply and

completely love and accept myself and I believe that with love and nurturing any

child can be a great child. I believe I can be a good mom.

On my second round I evolved to:

Even though I fear my food struggle will affect my child, I deeply and

completely love and accept myself. I believe that with love and nurturing any

child can be a great child, I can give my child that, therefore I can be a good

mom.

Before my third round I realized what the problem was. My limiting belief is not

that I will be a bad mom, that is a consequence of my limiting belief. What my

limiting belief is is: I AM DAMAGED GOOD. THEREFORE I AM NOT WORTHY OF HAVING

CHILDREN.

So now my new EFT will be:

Even though I think I am damaged goods and therefore worthless, I deeply and

completely love and accept myself and I open life to be healed of the past. I

believe every day is a new day and I can start it as a " brand new " human being,

free of scars

I think this is good, does anyone have any suggestions?

Has this happened to anyone else???
