I had Bobath or whatever as a kid. I'm not sure it helped much. I don't
know. There were many angry, negative people in my life then.
Oh how I hate to have my face touched or my teeth brushed! I just don't
like that at all. Kleenex drives me crazy. Also, I have to be fully
dressed to have a serious conversation with a caregiver. Etc.
And yes, I'm convinced that I have PTSD both from the spiritual/touch
abuse I suffered in high school as well as from having to fight my way
through public school since I ALWAYS had to prove myself....
Studying "A Course in Miracles" has helped with the anger. I have also
been working with a practitioner of Chulauqui Quodoshka(Native American
Sacred Sexuality) for the abuse. I would like to move beyond that to
actually manage the hypersensitivity better, if at all possible.
