I am appalled by the influence of a certain person on my life in my formative years.
Perhaps part of the trouble I have in changing is that, by "acting" like this person, it keeps this person "alive" to me. I know I went through that with my drinking for many years. Drinking kept another "alive" to me. I finally got into treatment and, enough years passed that I could finally let go of that person. However, it took lots of work in therapy. And many years of therapy. It looks like I need to do some work in that setting again.
Today, I am Grateful and Thankful to/for...
the ability to see that I am stuck and that I need professional help
Ok, I called BL. We will get started changing the dynamics at work in my life that are problematic
the realization that I must verbalize what is in my head in order to get better
what makes sense to me regarding my behavior (some of it) hits other's blindly like a "ton of bricks"
I am confident that these troubling areas can and will be cleaned up with help
I know I am close to breaking out of this barrier that keeps me a slave and "alone"
"alone" in my head with the memories that I'd rather put to rest
I welcome getting through this

Sounds a bit mysterious to me. Good luck getting through all of it.
