Well, for me, when I first went to therapy in my early 20's, I never understood where my T was going. I kindof felt numb, like, yes, my parents were less than ideal, but so what.
THEN ... I grew up, got married and had children. The defense walls came crashing down. I'm back with that same T and I now get everything she was trying to help me undercover years ago. For me, being a mother, changed everything. How could any mother sleep away her child's life? Not care? Not play with her? Enjoy her company? etc. etc.
I don't know if that answered your question. But like you, I was in therapy for 5 years and I could never grasp the concepts she was trying to explore. Never felt the rage or anger. Now I do, and I cry in therapy now too. :)
