Ep 166: Why do I feel WORSE during my trauma healing?
In today's episode, I discuss the immensity of grief that can accompany a transition out of dissociative life into a reality of complexity and relatedness.
I believe grief reflects and 'makes real' our thresholds.
When clients move from living their whole lives in a dissociative reality, disconnected from the here and now and the relational experience, returning to life can bring with it an immense amount of grief.
"At the point the patient begins to abandon the instant and absolute 'truth' of dissociative reality in favor of internal conflict and human relatedness, the patient discovers that there is no path without pain." -Phil Bromberg
Paul Russell also states, "We have to presume that the pain accompanying this grief is extreme, among the most painful of life's experiences."
