Star,
Well, since we are in our forties, you are right, we took a long time to stew in this dissociative stew it will probably take a while to get it under control. At least that is my take.
I have voiced the same thing to my p-doc/therapist. That I like the dissociation in the first place. He understands, but he says it is still for the most part, an overraction in time and place at the present. and that is true. To dissociate now, is not usually a lifethreatening experience just usually an uncomfortable one. And sometimes not even that. I have been dissociating in situations that are ok to me, but I guess not to my inners. I sometimes have no clue as to why I go away and come back later to find things different. I guess sometimes the other ones want out maybe. Heck if I know. Because the situation itself doesn't seem to warrant protection.
I have almost finished the book, and I like this man. He makes alot of sense. I did not find the book triggering. More I found it enlightening. Now the cases of neglect where hard to read but for the most part the abuse was done out of ignorance not malice. Still hard but not as hard as those well you know what i mean.
Anyway, maybe sometime you can try to read it. But then maybe alot of people I accept don't like to study like I do. I am somewhat of a bookworm. I do get that. I always have been.
I don't really think about switching much. Other people don't notice much except this last time. Oh well what the heck can you say. I guess next time I will just say I had a brain f*rt. I don't know. It is hard though isn't it. Sorry I did not have more wisdom for you.
