I think what you said about your picture is really interesting. I suspect it is because you saw yourself as how you looked at 8,in you own head, for a long time. Sort of like how we never really feel that we are aging, but when we see pictures we think, gee I need to color my hair! (or something like that.)
I went looking for a picture of myself recently, at about 11 years old. I remembered how my eyes looked so sad in that photo. But still, it was how I saw myself for a long time. I was surprised to see that the next year I was totally smiling and I thought it looked nothing like me.
I think what you said about your attachment interruptions make perfet sense. I think you should keep talking about all of this. I like the timeline idea too. I bet it was helpful.
