Roseleigh,

Yes, that's the problem. Just what you said, "We do a little bit, but it's too much." My t always talks about limiting how much pain i feel, even asking "How many drops of discomfort are you willing to feel?" I can say "10 drops," but that doesn't mean that when the emotions start flooding out, that i can lower them or prevent so much from coming out. I guess a few times, I've been able to kind of take a deep breath and step back away from the feelings temporarily. But that's rare. Usually, they just bombard me, and I can't ward them off.
