“I’m not ____ enough”.
One common manifestation of Shame is the concept of “Personal Scarcity”. The thought “I’m not _____ enough”. Fill in the blank with anything you like: smart, pretty, strong, funny, popular, etc. These thoughts and feelings lead you to believe you don’t deserve affection and that you’re not “worthy” of being loved.
The opposite of personal scarcity is not “having a surplus of _____”, it’s just having Enough.
