I would like to add that not everybodys experience is the same with anything. I can see why my therapist thinks this is a dissociative thing but coconscious. Normally people would have two impulses (speaking as if they are normal) either to touch the dog innapropriately or not to. There wouldnt be any fighting about it. No conflict. Either you would do it because you wanted to ot not do it because you didnt want to. Not conflicting feelings in one body about not wanting and wanting to do something.
