Emotional Processing
"most people successfully process the
overwhelming majority of the disturbing events that occur in their
lives"
Rachman 1980
"it is as if the body has a second
immune system, an emotional system,
devoted not to physical protection but protection
from emotional hurt and
trauma"
Baker 2003
Mrs R S at the end of
a course of psychological therapy:
"Before I wanted everything to be perfect, nearly every day I was wanting
to stay on this happy level all the time. I didn't want to appear
out of control to anyone else - angry, unhappy. I'm not going to let
this bother me - this 'nothing bothers' me exterior. Now I've come
to the regrettable conclusion that ups and downs are normal"
