Maybe you can't "Get it" because "it" is a moving target. We change daily, how we see things, the new things we learn. The more I read the less I know about Psychology. I think you have to experience things with people over and over again to "get it." We only experience ourselves.
I totally get what you mean about no one being in charge, it seems that way, doesn't it? I started out reading everything about techniques I could find, that way I would recognize "what he was doing to me." LOL -- It took me awhile to figure out that he follows me, redirecting and reframing but he doesn't come to each session with a lesson plan mapped out. But I have started to trust that while I am in charge in some ways, he will remain in charge of holding me together and keeping those boundaries. I hope you feel that way too.
There is nothing logical about your unconscience. So the same rules don't apply. I think that is why those of us who are "thinkers" have so much more trouble with this than those who are "feelers."
I think I'll go look for sale chocolate. Last night was really bad (too many nightmares) so mine is gone. Going to the library too...my favorite place to lose myself.
