Reading your response really helped a lot. You're right, I think in many ways, it is the wording that I'm having trouble with. I hadnt realized that until now. Inner child just sounds so abstract and mystical to me.. but old pain is something I can relate to. I never felt whiney until a week ago.. I'm a psych grad student and my counseling professor refered to me as being whiney (not in those words, but that's how it felt) after watching me be a client on tape (I'm sure you're familiar with all the taping.. yuck). I'm considering emailing him to tell him it hurt my feelings, but now that the semester is over, I'm not sure if its worth it. Plus, he may just file it away into the "whiney" category with everything else.
I see my T again on Monday and I may try to talk to her about the wording. It may just do the trick. Thanks for the suggestion!
