Dr. Gabor Maté explains how children may learn to suppress their true feelings, instincts, and needs in order to preserve attachment and acceptance. What once helped you survive can later appear as people-pleasing, difficulty saying no, ignoring your gut feelings, fear of rejection, overworking, or constantly abandoning yourself for other people. This video explores how the past can continue running the present without you realizing it. You will learn why certain fears no longer reflect your current reality, why old beliefs about worth can repeat automatically, and how creating distance between yourself and those beliefs can restore personal agency. Healing begins when you recognize the pattern, understand where it came from, and stop allowing an old survival response to decide who you are today.
