Talking in the third person

Posted by annierose on April 10, 2006, at 20:21:47

Today I noticed that I was talking about myself as if I was reporting about someone else's life. I wasn't using the third person, but it was as if I was. Has anyone else ever done that?

I told my T that I was experiencing that. She explained it can be a way to distance yourself from the pain you are feeling. Maybe so.

I do know that when I left, a flood of pain erupted and now it has decided to visit for awhile. I go again tomorrow, but I'm betting the pain will not show its ugly face. It's so frustrating.
