Child me in dream is bad and wrong. It deserves to be hit with a tree branch. It just sat there being abused and enjoyed it.
(I know it was a made up scenario in a dream but after doing emdr for an actual abuse incident, that I don't remember any emotions from, I've today felt angry and disgusted at the child me in the dream but didn't have these emotions in the dream itself.
Ai said that I'm probably having emotions from the real abuse but directing it onto my child self in the dream cause it's a safe space for my brain to process.
Consciously though I've had no emotions about the actual abuse since the session 2 days ago and only anxiety during the session.
