One of the big focusses of my own therapy has been, first, feeling much more fully the pain of having been abused, but also simultaneously learning to comfort my younger self (selves). At first, I didn't want to know anything about the pain these younger selves experienced, but now I am finding that integrating them into me more, feeling their pain, and learning ways to comfort them (and have them comforted by others) is really healing- really worth it. From what you say, you are making great progress in have started to really feel the pain more, but are really afraid of being overwhelmed by it. Would comforting techniques be helpful for
you, do you think?
