Deep wounds
by: Don

Hi,

It must have been a terrible thing for your parents to go through. I suspect you are right, getting caught up in the grief of losing a child is so traumatic that it may take a parent out of commission for a while.

Unfortunately for you it resulted in pre-verbal developmental wounds that left scars that are so deep you have not been able to put them into words or understand them.

A course in counseling with a therapist that knows techniques for healing such developmental issues would likely be the only way to drill down deep enough to help put the puzzle together.

A therapist that knows gestalt techniques or transactional analysis would be a couple of examples of the kind of therapy that might help.

CBT and strait talk therapy are usually not suitable to going back to the root of these kinds of issues.

Keep coming back!
Don
