Art therapy sounds interesting. Though I would of course refuse.
I would say that there are some age related features to my ego states, but they aren't the most prominent differences. The most prominent differences are the emotional vs. rational divide. But yes, my emotional state definitely has a younger look and younger reactions. Also different posture and ways of speaking.
Not rage though. At least not with my therapist. My rational side tells him off from time to time, but my emotional self rarely gets angry with him. I definitely turn all anger towards my self.
He's the only remaining connection left for my emotional self. The only attachment. The only source of support. My support stool has lost two of its three legs. I'm hoping the puppies will grow up to provide a second one. But I think it is now and always has been way too scary to be angry with him. If I don't have him, I'll have no one.
