(((Daisy)))
Sounds like you've accomplished a lot. I'm glad talking about sex was not as difficult as you had anticipated. But yes, little Daisy is now front and center.
When my therapist first brought up the inner child work and methods for soothing her, I found it very difficult to do just in my head. So, I started doing it through writing. I would write to her and ask her questions, and she would answer. I found it very insightful and was shocked by the things she wrote back. (BTW, I love GG's idea about the different colors.) She needs to be out this weekend; I hope you can listen to her and resist the urge to put her away.
It sounds like you're making lots of progress, lots of painful progress. I'll be thinking about you this weekend.
