It has been over a month since my we used Brain Spotting to access the past life event tied to the sexual abuse I received as a young child. The child parts are quiet and at peace. The older parts have receded into the background except for the Witches and the Administrator. I believe weContinue reading “Journal May 24, 2022”

We’ve been pretty stable these past months. The young one’s have been getting to know our therapist and are very fond of her. Because of their relationship with the therapist we’ve become aware that they didn’t have any toys. We picked them up a couple small things and let them color with our colored pencils. Continue reading “Journal: April 20, 2022”

At our therapy appointment this week we talked about Christmas and how it has triggered us in the past. We have been observing, waiting to see if we would have the same problems this Christmas as we have had in Christmas past. We haven’t had any difficulties with triggering, just a loathing for Christmas. WeContinue reading “Journal: December 4, 2021”

It’s been a while since we’ve posted. We’ve continued with the brain spotting therapy with some interesting results. Apparently the one who blogs also does the sketches. After one of our brain spotting sessions we went away and a depressed adolescent part came forward. All we would do is sit on the couch and doze. Continue reading “Journal: October 26, 2021”

Be careful what you ask for. It’s been a little over a week since my second brain spotting therapy. I’ve had flashbacks and more dissociation than normal. The extra dissociation has affected my ability to focus making it difficult to be stay on task and be efficient at work. The dust from the flashbacks haveContinue reading “Journal: April 4, 2021”

We’ve had our second brain spotting session. It was a very different experience. During a previous therapy session with our therapist, we were asked if we could see the beauty in the toddler that we were. We couldn’t. I tried to work with the therapist’s request in meditation and experienced unexpected difficulties. I chose toContinue reading “Journal: March 29, 2021”

Brainspotting was a very positive experience for us yesterday. The Brainspotting therapist talked briefly with us at the beginning of our session. We started Brainspotting by closing our eyes and grounding. Then the therapist asked us to open our eyes and allow our eyes to look around the room until they found a place ourContinue reading “Journal: March 12, 2021”

The uncertainty over my job has resolved itself. An ADA is in place stating that the Topiramate caused cognitive disfunction. I go back to work and living a graveyard schedule next Tuesday. The depression has broken up into a mist of yesterday and I’ve gone back to doing portraits. A success in it itself, butContinue reading “Journal: January 30, 2021”

Depression has been worsening. It takes a lot of energy to get up from the couch. Boredom is palpable, pressing me down into the space that I sit. All the things that there is to do I’ve done before and there is no urge to do them again. Inertia. I’m reminded of a piece ofContinue reading “Journal: January 19, 2021”

I’ve lost momentum on the portraits – a complete stop. I’m depressed. The husband has been mean and shouty to us for the last two days. I sit here and stare at nothing at all while my brain just grinds over and over disjointed thoughts. Half-hearted motivations to do something anything. Frequently something, anything isContinue reading “Journal: December 31, 2020”
