Yeah...I was thinking that, too. It's quite different how we can react, depending on so many factors.
Like with me, I had zero childhood abuse or trauma (sorry for the word). Also no *obviously* traumatic events as an adult...yet again...some events (like terrible relationships) that happened starting at age 19 when my mom died, IMO, have deeply changed and hurt me, and led to the depression and other problems I have today. At least that's my theory, and my T. seems to go along with it. But at times, I feel I'm just weak, pathetic and wasting his and everyone's time.... you guys know that drill...
Anyway, my T. often uses "wounded" and likes to mention, "finding that [those] broken piece[s]" and honestly, I like it. It's comforting because I feel so very understood and validated, and like, well, like I have every right to be sitting there when he says it. He definitely gives off the 'vibe,' too, without having to come out and say it, that these wounds can be healed.
