> but maybe your doll represents your core, happy self before anything bad happened to you.
That is a very intersting point. My doll is always happy and that is why when T asks "her" a question, it's usually different from mine. (Her answers are usually positive and happy!)
Ya know what's weird though. My child part emailed T last week after the session and said that I was sad and "dolly" was too. (My T wrote back that she was sorry to hear that.) I love how T speaks to and relates to my doll. :) I even let her hold her one time for most of the session; although she didn't know why I wanted her to and neither did I, but now that you are mentioning the doll representing my core, maybe it's making sense(?) T holding my doll would be the closest thing to her holding me?
I'm confused and I'm getting a headache.
>She is pure innocence--and I'm very happy to have found her.
I'm glad you did too. :)
In fact, as I am having trouble understanding and accepting this "part" of myself, my T last week made me promise not to kill her off, and that children are such a delight. :)I have therapy tonight and it's raining; I don't like to bring my doll out in the rain. Not sure what I'll do yet.
