I can't answer any specific questions but what sprung to mind when reading your post is if you've ever done any body work therapy e.g...

Hello I'm happy I found this group. Since my 20s (I'm 55 now) I have times where I have a super sensitivity to cold. I've broken down...

Thank you for sharing... It is helpful... that's great that you've done such good work together and without outside help. Sounds very...

I relate to this a lot. I used to dissociate a lot during sex and it took me a while to even just be present in the moment. A big help...

You’re not creating a drama. You’re exploring the complex dynamics that these therapeutic relationships throw up. I can understand why...

Thank you Movingforward10, I really appreciate your response and it's not lost on me that everyone here has their own things to deal...

I do get that olivejewel and I would never expect him to hold a spot for more than appropriate. I'm sorry I'm creating a drama. I've...

I would feel exactly the same way. But maybe break it down to two things: 1) responding to his email 2) your feelings about his email...

Thanks for the speedy reply I really appreciate it. It's really useful breaking it down as you have. 1) Responding, I was building up...

Ugh sorry to be posting again. Having another reaction. T just emailed (it's Sunday night here), saying I need to say whether I'm...

It’s a long journey and there are many roads. You realize at least that you need to get this out . I’d say that’s exactly the right...

This is a bit late but I really wanted to thank you! Your words have helped me a lot. They’ve really helped me so much. I definitely...

Life doesn't need to be this difficult. Have you considered finding yourself a therapist? One of the things that can be really...

A normal part of child development is the egocentric stage, where children think (in overly simplified terms) that they cause what is...

i can’t live with this by myself any longer. i need it out. i don’t really remember much and admittedly I don’t have the best memory...

Where_am_i... you are not alone... I (and I'm sure others here who've talked about their cocsa experiences) can relate to alot of what...

I think that's a common feeling to have - not unusual. And part of what maybe makes this difficult for you is that there was a dynamic...

Bellaellawhatever... oh how I relate to so many things you've said in your post... I totally get where you're coming from. It sounds...

Okay. I get it. When will we realize someone who is disabled can be abused by another disabled person?

I hear you. i do think someone who is disabled can be abused by another disabled person. Really there are no limits (sadly) to who can...

In what way did this actually backfire? - other than your emotional response to having been vulnerable in a way you did not intend...

I think they are protective because the aim is to prevent you from getting hurt/punished. If you don’t eat then something better will...

Love the quote 🙂 thanks Yes you're 100% correct. I'm not ready to deal with it yet. But I have accepted over this week that I could...

It didn't backfire, you just learned you are not ready to deal with it yet. Like Edison said while working on the light bulb, I...

Sure does, but less uncomfortable then leaving the session and wondering about all the things you couldn’t ask. For me that list is a...

Yes it does! But feeling strange and awkward in session is part and parcel for the work! It’s the ability to stay present with...

You put things so well. This is (yet another) revelation to me. I know it sounds stupid but thinking of it in this way makes it more...
