> We may be talking about slightly different things. I interpret that you are talking about bringing memories of the past back into consciousness. I am talking about bringing understanding about reasons for current behavior into consciousness. I don't know if the mechanisms are the same or different.
I'm not sure whether they count as distinct mechanisms or not... But I think they are both similar in the sense that they are both essentially creative / constructive processes. Thats not to say that there aren't reality constraints in there, but it is to say that if it 'feels right' in that calm kind of way - then thats probably about as good as it gets. Unless we hit apon something else later that feels even more right, of course ;-)
