I wish more ts would understand this like i think my t does. Cuz the child within us certainly does not understand what it means when someone tells us, hey too bad, youll get over it. Because obviously we do not get over it. I dont run around all crazy in the therapy room - all activity is pretty ritualized - but its predictable, and loving, and boundaried, and its like what kids need. And its helping me to feel like myself from a very long time ago - from before my mother started actively interfering in my life.
