And, may I say, this "parts" therapy (which I was so against), isn't so terribly awful when she puts it into a form that I can manage. It is more like
"a part of you feels that way, but that's not all of you"
NOT
"a part of you is a kid and can't manage those feelings"

Does that make sense? I am responsible and in control...those feelings AREN'T all encompassing, they are a part, a small part.
