In my experience, it was common for a therapist to try to get me to say I felt anger or injustice or sad or what ever, for my childhood self. I never could figure out what they were going on about and as far as I can tell, I don't feel that way. I don't even know what the point would be in it. But therapists that I hired seemed keen on it.

I don't so much feel like I deserved stuff - more that it was not that big of a deal. That I could handle it and no one has a life without some adversity.
