i did - i couldn't talk for about 3 years. still there is a lot i just don't have access to verbally. when i do come up with something, i email it - and make myself press SEND. that way i can't change my mind and retract it later.
sometimes i have to do things in pictures rather than words... sometimes collages. it is a starting point. it is hard when we've been silent all our lives. i rarely can talk about anything triggering in person... she always then expects me to email what came up.
best to you, kiya
