Hey, thanks so much for posting this! I am a slow reader, but have been digesting this bit by bit. The reason I like it so much is it seems that there IS hope after all. I've read a million times that if you've got serious attachment issues your screwed for life. I was trying to figure out how I would grow old into the hermit cat lady I'm destined to be without just getting more and more depressed, LOL. But now I'm digging the idea of small improvements bit by bit over time, neuroplasticity!

The examples didn't bother me. Maybe the therapy is getting to me. "We’ve been through such a wave of grief here, and now….there seems to be something else. A letting go…a sigh of relief? What’s happening now?" But when I started therapy I remember being blown away by the ridiculous seeming emotional statements, I remember the first time my T mentioned the "little girl" inside me and I was like, what the what what? I could have vomited. Now I'm different. Now I'm emoting and stuff.
