Welcome back, Babybird!

I hope you had a nice vacation.

That's nice though sometimes I wonder whether an exorcism might be more appropriate

Seriously babe, coming right up!

I broke a rib and did some really good Linda Blair impressions last week, trying to sleep.

We can share the angst.

That's interesting stuff about the alters. Is the therapy still helping?

I'm doing well in therapy. He's thinking that the emdr route isn't really the best course of action for me because there's far too much trauma. The alters are simply a coping mechanism that I developed as a small child so he's not really concerned with that too much all though he is respectful of it.

He's extended my therapy sessions from 20 weeks to just however long it will take.

There's a lot to talk about and it's gonna take time.

I'm glad it's going well bb. ^
He sounds like a really good therapist.

Yes I can't complain

Yesterday's session was good.

I remembered something quite significant and extremely painful from my childhood. I just growled and swore for the first 15 minutes of my session. I was in so much pain inside and I couldn't express it in any other way. Then my T told me to take a sip of my blackcurrant drink to try to help to bring me back in the room.

I took a sip and fell asleep. I didn't know blackcurrant had special powers.

He calls it my magic juice.

This seems like a really good thing for you to be doing congrats

Yeah it was probably a turning point session yesterday.
