Thank you Pfinstegg for beginning this tread. Yes, I do believe it's an intense thread, but it has helped me put words to feelings that I hadn't found the words for yet.
I remembered reading last year (I believe) when you began art therapy ... so interesting. It certainly does sound like your younger parts had a chance to express themselves through play and art.
I cried when I read your reply: "You obviously do matter a lot to her." This is my struggle. And I will definitely bring this tread up tomorrow. Thank you for saying that. I'm feeling better. I hope this discussion has helped you as well.
As for my parents, it's so mixed up right now. I don't believe they are capable of having any type of conversation that would involve real emotions or ideas. They live on the surface, "as if" we are a close family. Nothing is there but an occasional phone about what they are doing for dinner, the movie they saw last night and various medical complaints. They don't even interact with their grandchildren. Very sad for all. I think my T would like some type of dialogue to happen before they die ... she has recently began asking if I can imagine trying to have a conversation with them. I can't.
