Oh yeah, do I relate. My t brings out all the neediness of the inner child, and I hate her (the child). I get mad at having that part, but the more I scream at it to "stop", "get over it", "grow up", it seems to make the neediness even stronger. I just talked to my t today how I get so triggered that alot of times I go home even more hopeless, but I couldn't NOT see her either. I need her, I know it, and I hate it.
