and then i watch film footage of behaviourist therapy or 'treatment' with autistic kids... teaching them to look in the eyes for food reward. you can see that they really don't want to. they don't like it. they'd really rather not do it. but they train them to do it, anyway... train them to be more 'normal'. why? not for the kids benefit... i really don't think...
and so my last therapist had this thing about emotional attunement or resonance or whatever it was... and therapy (for him... for me... whatever...) was about his trying to make that connnection with me.
and i felt a lot like those kids.
but i'm sure he knows whats best.
for me.
