There is a kid part and a seperate 9 year old part and me. I know it sounds crazy but its like with the nine year old part of me I have places stuck back at that age. She is the one that causes the physicl pain as flashbacks and she screams alot. I know she is me but she has her own seperatness. Does that make sense? I wonder if trauma does this to other people?
I do understand, trust me I found there were many, many, many parts of me that are me but they aren't so, yes this does happen to others with trauma. EMDR worked wonderfully for me for a few years, breaking through was hard, remember to allow yourself to feel what you feel in that moment and allow your self to delve into all of those places where you are stuck. You must break through all of these places or they will come back with avengance one day--TRUST ME ON THIS ONE!! There were some parts that I just couldn't allow myself to go into and now 5 years later the flashbacks and nightmares are back and you know what they are, the incidences I would not allow myself to break through. Keep up the good work. YOU WILL FEEL BETTER FOR IT.
