I have no thoughts to match these episodes either, the only thing i know about them is they are kind of controlable to a degree in that with a great deal of effort i can hold them off long enough to get somewhere safe and alone. I can tell when they are starting and if i need to hold off it feels a bit like a turrettes tick which you can feel building until you can't stop it
I emailed my t today an explained what I had experienced. I don't always know who will be at session so I don't know if I would have told her during session. So I sometimes email her so she can bring it up in case I don't. Anyway, when I was writing to her I realized the body movement is my body talking to me. Like my thoughts would. Instead it was my body. That is what I think it is. Which would make sense if what I experienced are body memories. When I get the painful memories I don't get a thought with them. Just the pain. The same thing happened with this experience. I just want to thank you again for sharing your experience. It helps me to know that I am not the only one that is having an experience like this.
Thanks for this!
