Wondering about how others have taken initial steps with communicating with pieces that are stuck in trauma time.
I currently don’t have access to a therapist but would like to try working on a few things myself, but am cautious to not cause more harm than benefit. If there are lessons you’ve learned when initially establishing lines of communication with those trauma pieces, and you’d like to share here, please do!
Something I’m trying to attempt is to listen as though the part is someone else not so connected to me. As though they’ve picked me to disclose what happened to them. I don’t yet know how to respond because I have to remind myself that it’s not me, just listen to her. It’s the first time I’ve ever considered even listening, so I think that’s progress.....but want to make sure I’m not making a mistake with this approach.
Grateful for any input.
