I love your insite on how you are different in dealing with stuff. I remember in therapy at first and still sometimes I can tell what happened in a matter of fact way. Actually it is a symptom of PTSD,(dulling of the feelings) But it is okay,because it protected us, because feelings hurt and it our natural way of protecting us.
Kinda like when you give birth to a baby, it hurts like frickin hell, but somehow your forget or else there would be a lot more one child families.But eventually you have have to deal with the stuff because it keeps invading our lives. You shouldn't be hard on yourself for crying. (i know better said than done). But is okay to cry and you need to cry, and have every right to cry for whatever happened to you.
I like how you discribed the ocean and the washing over you kinda like a wave. I am sure your T understood what you meant and was able to bring you back. This is so great and you should be so proud of yourself. It sounds like an awesome session. I am glad you post here.
