How do i make my inner child shut up?
20m here. Been struggling with a lot of depression and anxiety as of late, especially due to a breakup that happened a few weeks ago. I cant stop this craving for a motherly figure in my life. My inner child wont shut up and it keeps telling me how sad and lonely and scared i am and how nobody likes me, nobody wants to be my friend, i have nothing, etc. Its like my inner self has assumed the state of a sad, bullied child and i dont know how to make it stop.
