Wait, you used to brush off emotional reactions during treatments too? I definitely felt that way until a similar moment totally shifted how I see this work.

Yeah totally that whole "brushed off emotional reactions" thing hits close to home. I actually heard a podcast with a therapist once who explained how our brains try to protect us by ignoring strong feelings during intense stuff. Made me realize I was basically shutting down instead of processing. It took me a while to unlearn that habit but now I try to just sit with whatever comes up even if it feels uncomfortable.
