This morning we figured out another trigger of Younger Boy's at therapy...totally by accident.
Therapist C was asking him about school. With each question he got younger and younger until he was helpless.
Questions from adults are triggers. Especially if the answer involves guilt.
We spent the entire two hours working on this and role playing this.
All three therapists think that the sleepless nights are caused when he goes to bed as his four-year old self. Case in point...Sunday. He was four-years old all day. Didn't sleep that night.
More theories...more knowledge.
Thanking God EVERY day for these three. For their willingness and fascination with Younger Boy to really dig in and help figure him out.
