Another day of struggling

[The People]

Again, I do not know you or your system much at all as I don't come here as often as I used to, I went through periods like that where roller coaster was mild in comparison. When I came out the other end one of manyh things had happened. Initially someone new had come out. Or we would recognize that we would have gone through that same patternt the previous year and the year before... or a deeply buried 'secret' would have risen to the surface and been dealt with.

We dealt with those times by having lots of tactile things to do. Crayons for drawing 9or whatever littles llike) took baths because they are safe for us now, wrote poetry or journalled or both. We wrote (and still write) letters to T and sometimes in the midst of the writing an answer to what was upsetting us would coime out. We started writing with our first real T 9the previous ones were just practice) We did not realize it at the time as we were very social when not hiding but she said we never said a word. So at least with the writing she knew where we were at. he accepting of this went a long way with regards to building a trust relationship; the first stone in building a bridge that would allow us to go to her with stuff instead of being the stone that sat in silence.

Good luck.
