Obviously for you the assotiation is the opposite. But your T cannot know unless you tell her.
i absolutely associate being pushed away or put in a corner by someone as them being angry at me, or wanting to hurt me, or punish me, humiliate me,or any one of a million horrible things that go through my mind.in my home the corner was not necessarily used as punishment (but sometimes).but as a means to keep me out of the mothers hair.it was always "go get in that damn corner and stay there until i am ready to deal with you.i would spend a lot of time there .it is the fact that T is putting me there and i cant figure out what i did why does she need this space.i wasn't rude,mean,disrespectful or anything that i can remember.i just feels horrible
