But to have a similar thing happen with a "mother void" is really remarkable. I wish that therapists could know how this thread has turned up evidence for how it feels to have such a thing and how it affects us.

I was just thinking the same about how amazed i am at how similar our experiences are, like we feel it in the same parts of the body, isn't that strange? This thread is very sad but also very unifying and exciting for me because i know now i'm not alone in these feelings, that it is a "thing". I feel like i'm saying hello to some soul mates that i haven't seen for a long time or something.
