How did I "meet" Little Manda?
Well, let's see... if I really think, I think she came out when I was in the hospital back in late March (or there soon after) my husband began to notice that I was acting... differently... much younger... in a sense. He said he would wake up in the middle of the night to me sucking my thumb, or clinging onto the one stuffed animal that I owned.
So yeah, Basically I thought I was going crazy, something had happened to me in the hospital, etc to make me revert back to my childhood, etc... but then something "a still small voice" if you will, told me to post in DD and see what people's response was to my experience... and well, that was all the clarification we needed.
Now, even if I go my therapist (coming up in a few weeks) and she tells me that Little Manda doesn't exist... WE WILL KNOW!!!
