Well! The child got sick in the car on the way, so they cancelled. Reprieve.
I started with yet another new t (one with DID experience) that I am paying out of pocket for. Like an immediate intervention. I talked her ear off. She said two thugs I found interesting. One: if the alter is truly an animal alter and refuses to be a human, this is a natural animal instinct. ( uhhh... Ok... But... Uh oh).
Two, I need to teach the student about personal space. That we each have one and that I am more comfortable if she doesn't put her hands in mine, and she probably doesn't want people in her space either.
I am also thinking that when I see her hands coming toward my face, I can put my hands out and cover hers. That keeps us both safe while I figure out what to do with my wolfling.
