Hi Daisy! I LOVE reading your posts. You seem so wise and insightful. I know you struggle tremendously with your own pain but there's something very noble about the way you do it.
> I guess I'm going to disagree. I think feeling the feelings is like taking your hand OUT of the fire.Yes. We are already burned, aren't we?
I guess I've been thinking that I've been burned already and I don't want to do it again -- but your perspective is I'm still on fire and feeling feelings puts the fire out?
> But keeping it out of the fire and not burning it more with ice, allows it to heal. It just hurts a whole lot in the mean time. But it isn't being re-injured if it is treated right.Does it heal? Really? Honestly truly really? Your post made me think they deliberately put some burn victims in comas because the pain's so great. I think some people create 'comas' for themselves. I suppose everyone has to wake up at some point.
> I know it is hard. But the only way to the other side is through the dark tunnel. At least in my experience.Do you feel like you are getting through the tunnel? Is your burn healing? Do you know someone who has healed and they are glad they went through all that pain to get to the other side?
