I was trying to figure out whether it was better to be emotional me or rational me. My therapist thinks it should be rational me being hypnotized, because that's the part of me that works.
I guess it depends on how things are organized. If it's a vertical split or a horizontal one. I always figured it was a horizontal split. That when I was emotional me, I was already a layer down in consciousness from rational me. So that it would make sense for emotional me to be the one hypnotized, since the goal was to reach a level even deeper. The spot I'd be aiming for would be underneath either of me's. So it would make sense to start from the spot further down.
But...
If it's more of a vertical split then reaching down into emotional me's subconscious wouldn't at all be like reaching down into rational me's subconscious. I'd be aiming for a different area entirely.
I guess no one knows?
