In reply to T says regressing/feeling like kid is progress (?), posted by Poet on April 8, 2005, at 18:18:56
Yes indeedy, yup, I have been through that, and my therapist encouraged it.
I had all sorts of feelings I couldn't name, couldn't describe even. Lots of body feelings. Lots and lots of sadness. I found safety with him, though, regressed to that place where I was not safe, and learned what it felt like to be safe there, and grew from there. Poet, it helped so much.
There is another wonderful side to regression, and that is that I recaptured some of the wonder I felt.ShortE
