I'm glad he is out of danger. Anyone would feel angry at times at having to do so much caring for someone who is chronically ill and grumpy, and who maybe doesn't give as much back. Especially when you are expressing and feeling more of what your own needs are- the little daisies in particular. It just hurts horribly
I was thrilled with Allan Schore because of the clarity of his ideas about how early traumas and deficits are healed- through emotional connections, and building new circuitry in the right hemispheres, as you say- and how he has combined his knowledge of neuroscience with his role as a practicing psychoanalyst. He seemed to be a real leader in these areas, and I felt so hopeful for myself, and everyone like me, after hearing him. But, I agree with you, I like my own warm and dear analyst far better. And I of course like yours very much vicariously! Both of them seem so good at emotional containment. I notice, as I read threads here, that when there is a good emotional connection to a therapist, it is worth a thousand reasoned interpretations. We are both going through very tough times, but I do think that we are very lucky- and that real healing lies ahead of us.
