T is not specifically a trauma T although he does have significant training in working with trauma. I am guessing by many of his responses to me that my trauma may be the most severe in both breadth and depth that he has encountered. I know he is also surprised by how when I disassociate my behaviors and affect do not change in any way that he can pick up on.
This helps. It would also explain why processing the traumas that I can process comfortably helps more than self care or grounding... just taking that little bit of extra weight off.
