the image is a visual representation of the concept of traumatic invalidation, organized as a circular diagram with sections labeled as "criticizing," "emotional neglect," "ignoring," "misinterpreting," "controlling," "blaming," "unequal treatment," and "excluding." each section contains a list of specific behaviors or actions that exemplify that type of invalidation. inside the circle, there are phrases like "i am bad," "i don't belong," "i am inferior," "i cause problems," "i am incompetent," "i can't be trusted," "i don't matter," and "i am unlovable" which appear to be the perceived feelings or beliefs that can result from these invalidating experiences. the overall image aims to illustrate the various ways in which a person's experiences, feelings, or perceptions can be denied, dismissed, or invalidated, leading to potential trauma.
