Is this your shadow?
The Hollow One
Avoidant · one of 11 shadowsEmptiness given weight and breath.
How it speaks
“When it hurt too much, I taught myself to feel nothing at all. Empty is safer than breaking.”
“I’m here, but far away — behind glass, watching my own life from the back row.”
“The moment things get real, I go quiet and vanish. Don’t come looking; I won’t be found.”
How to spot it
Withdrawal and flat, faraway affect.
How to meet it
Patience and presence, no pushing — it softens when it’s allowed to simply exist.
A shadow is one of your unseen parts — not a flaw, not the bad in you, just a part that learned to hide. In INtegration you meet it as it is, tend it over real days, and watch it heal into something whole.
