Dissociation

If you read yesterday’s posts you may guess that Stephanie was none too happy with me about getting laser focused on Final Fantasy. She doesn’t for obvious reasons like being considered a “distraction.” The language that she used was that I dissociate. Apparently that is a bigger problem than I realized and far more general than just yesterday. She says we can’t go on like this which is to say she can’t go on like this. Once again we are unevenly yoked because she can put on her headphones and ignore us but I can’t. I can’t finish my game of Final Fantasy anytime soon.

  1. You have been using video games to cope without coping for decades. I am listening to healing sounds and sorting out childhood trauma. I am meeting my need to heal. You are avoiding your need to self-regulate while remaining present. I’m sorry you don’t see a difference.

    1. No I don’t see the difference. I will try to adjust my behaviors but I don’t understand what principle you expect me to follow.

  2. Meeting needs changes behavior. Avoiding needs maintains behavior. Our behavior is unsustainable, so we must change or be destroyed.
