>I think I understand the theory behind it but I want to actually talk to a real person who has been traumatized and "worked through" all the memories and emotions and been freed. How did it work? Was it worth it? Did they wish they hadn't?
I think it's like asking someone who is suffering to stick their hand in fire, saying it's the only way they can get better. If you're that person in pain
it seems insane to willingly put your fingers in the flames when all you want to do is run the other way.
***YA. Thats a great analogy. And I never thot of that, but its true. I keep wondering, whats the point? It don't seem safe or rational....and mebbe its not so much sticking you hand in the fire as much as throwing your whole self in.....craziness.
Sigh.
