I guess I don't really know what regression means. I think of it as falling back into a behaviour that is age inappropriate. Like, if I had reached over and pulled that mean nasty woman's hair. That was a line of action with my sister when I was small.
But if it's not regression, but a learned behaviour, that explains why it's not too difficult to feel the feeling but react a little differently sometimes.
Still, this will take some talking about to understand.
Could you keep us posted as to what your T says? Forgetting is a big part of therapy for me, and coming back to the same things again and again until my conscious is ready to hear them.
