I guess that's when I dissociated during those moments? |
Zooropa, you nailed it - feeling safe is so important to me - I never realized how important it was until just last week. T has given me a gift, the gift of feeling safe, and it's a wonderful feeling.
I would say that, yes, it is in those moments that you did dissociate, when you're sitting further from T. I have had those moments as well, but I didn't realize it when it was happening. So strange!
