so sorry you feel such painful and intense emotions...is there a way you can observe your feelings without acting on them? kind of like just letting them pass through you? grab onto a towel and twist it as you are saying what the pain is about outloud?
or try taking an orange and cut it the way you want to hurt yourself. that's worked for me before.
one thing is you need to be able to observe this pain without turn from emotional to physical. maybe a safe place would be in your sessions. (i know, they never seem to occur when your in session) but it's worth a shot.please take care of yourself Dinah. you are going through so much right now. you should be proud of how well you really are doing, even though it may not seem like it right now.
take care
