I'm so glad you feel better- me, too! It's such a hard thing to deal with, and it's wonderful to share so much understanding and support with all the people who have responded. All the "regressive" things I've done (art and play therapy, finding special places in his office) have had the effect of enabling me to bring my youngest and most primitive parts more easily into the therapy- just the parts who were most hurt, and have the most need to be there.
I do think your therapist has a good point in asking you to think about talking to your parents. They won't be any different, and will try to make you feel as you did when you were a child, but it may make YOU feel better- freer, honest and more in charge of your own life. But it sounds as if you have time on that.
I wish us both(really, all of us) a very intense and valuable week in therapy!
