((((Dinah))))
How about on an individual level, though? I mean, I can see how I tend to swing to those two extremes (with a preference towards narrowing my boundaries). If it happens with people on an individual level then I don't think it is all that suprising that those dynamics should play out in a group environment too...
I dunno.
I agree that parts of it were a bit hard to take.
And that they didn't really talk about it on an individual level - but I needed to do that so as to 'translate' it for myself to try and figure out what was being said. Lots of the terminology was unfamiliar to me.What about how you have said before that sometimes you need to try to emotionally withdraw. I wondered if that could be seen as a narrowing of boundaries when caring for Babble becomes a bit too much. That you have said stuff before about having to lower your expectations. I just wondered whether that might be a swing from one to the other right there. And there hasn't been a successful resolution of that stuff yet, has there?
I dunno.
Tell me to stoppit if ya like.
