How do I stop projecting my traumas into other people and just take responsibility for my actions?
It’s quite common to transfer pent up anger, feelings and aggression to other people. We often lash out at people for behaviors in ourselves that we don’t like. Instead of acknowledging these feelings and dealing with them in a way that’s healthy and productive, we repress them. But the sad thing about repressed emotions is that they don’t disappear, they don’t go away. They come back to hunt us and if we’re not careful, they can destroy our relationship with others.
I think it’s a good think you acknowledge your traumas and how you project it to others, that’s like first step ticked out. From what you put up there, you don’t like how you project your traumas to other people, and you’d like to change. You may not be able to embrace your traumas, and I honestly wouldn’t tell you to. But accepting your traumas will determine how you’d be able to move past them. Most times, we need help, professional help, but we often live in denial and tell ourselves “I can handle it”. Speak to a professional if you have to, it’s will help you heal and move past your traumas.
