When we are children our lives are in the hands of our parents. Our survival depends on them. Did you fear for your survival when you were young? If so maybe this is transference being triggered up?

I read all that info and was trying to do it correctly. I don't feel unempowered, just confused. It probably was and is transference, but sadly labelling it does not alleviate the reaction. She called it resistance. That label did not help either. I did tell her about both the killing and how I knew it was not real. Major frustration.
But surely somewhere there is info on what is appropriate to endure to make this help, and what to not endure as simple idiocy to keep on at.
