maybe its the idea that youhave to do it that is making it hard. When someone tells me I HAVE to do something or I plan something that I absolutely HAVE to do I have more trouble doing it because I prefer the no deadline and a way out if I need it approach. do you and your memory pieces like to cook?. if so start out by making something you like and want to do. It could be as simple as putting pudding and milk into a jar and shaking it until its ready to eat (about 3-5 minutes). When you put the pudding into the jar just do a quick dip the finger in to feel the texture, or taste what the dry pwder tastes like before adding milk. You just did DID therapy - reconnecting with a sense taste or touch. You are sitting at the computer logged in here. Just take a quick moment to notice what colors make up the page you are reading - You just did DID therapy - connecting with the sense of sight. To make posts you are using your senses of touch (fingers hitting the keys), sight (seeing what letters you are typing). Are you drinking or eating while at the computer if so you are in touch with your senses of taste, thirst and hunger, and textures (what the food feels like in your mouth) thats DID therapy. When taking a walk notice anything new around you - what your eyes are seeing, what your nose is smelling, sense of touch pick a flower or notice how cold or hot it is. Once you develop this habit of noticing things in your present life according to your 5 senses and emotions the other detailed work of reconnecting with the memories will fall into place more naturally and you wont have to work so hard at getting all the memory pieces to agree because they will already be naturally falling into place without an effort or have to do's deadlines and so on. I have a great recipe that I like to do called pistachio torte I will post it in the recipe section. Its fun, tasty and ooh soo enjoyably messy hands on type recipe.
