Dinah,
I love your stories about your therapist!
I have been talking to my therapist about how hard it is for me to feel this regressed. His response is that little Daisy needs to be allowed to express her feelings so when she is "out" I should just let her talk. It is very hard not to edit what she has to say. Today was one of those days when she was very out. Even though I had a session I still ended up in a puddle of tears several hours later. I caved in and called him. He called back and just encouraged the tears, named little daisy's fears for me and basically hung out on the phone with me for awhile.
We agree I'm grieving. But there seems to be no way to control which part of me is grieving the most at any one time and therefore wants to be out in session. But I'll keep in mind negotiating for time. It might work.
