I also struggle with the anatomy words, especially putting the word "my" in front of them. When my T had me write out a "story" of how I wished my Mom had told me about those words, I read it to her about 4 times, at her request. But that was last year. I don't think I could do it again.

Last session, I wanted to talk about something and I had to say one of the words. I somehow managed. I'm getting scared/triggered and can't write them here at all. Reading some of the replies is hard too.

Hearing the words is hard too. Throughout my whole therapy, my T has asked where in my body do I feel something and I used to panic and maybe even dissociate when I heard those words.

Thanks for this thread, Peridot.
