In reply to I don't believe my therapist, posted by Dinah on December 3, 2004, at 13:11:25
When things get emotional, I am sometimes unable to understand what people around me are saying because I forget from one word to the next what has been said. Sometimes it is so bad I literally can't understand what is being said. As though I can't hear well enough to understand.
I've heard it said that some people faint when they do because they are confronted with a situation they don't know how to deal with. For example, a person might faint when confronted with an injury, but after learning first aid, no longer faints and instead treats the injury.
WHen I don't have the.. the what? The data, I guess, to deal with any given emotional situation, I bug out. No doubt about it.
What is normal for you IS normal.
And who is this therapist who uses the term "normal"?? There is no such thing, is there?
Hugs,
