Hi Dinah,

I find what you say very interesting, and I have been missing you around here so I'm glad you posted

My therapist was actually talking about rational sides of people last session. He talked about Jung's anima and animus and the importance of both sides.

Did you ever think of letting the two sides have a conversation on paper? Why does the rational feel like there's no room for the emotional side? I think in many ways the world values our rational sides more so as you say we feel happier and more productive when that side is in charge.

Does any of this make sense to you? I know that I'm far along on the dissociative spectrum so for me to think of opposing sides of myself with conflicting wants and needs is completely normal to me, but may sound like nonsense to someone else.
