basically if you have suppressed your feelings you need to practice feeling them again. it’s like wiggling numb fingers or toes. I’m kinda surprised you’re asking these 101 questions, didn’t you make some breakthroughs with sobsquad and so on...?

Like what? If you go slow and small enough you’ll see the tangles before anything breaks. Like when you pull on a wire that’s tangled with others and then you notice another wire getting taut. That’s useful information

idk man all i can report is that even when i try to go slow and small i’m not convinced i’m going slow enough and small enough
feels like you are making this process out to be easier than it has been for me and that makes me feel dumb

What would you need, in order for (that part of) you to know & trust that you're going slow & small enough?
How can you tell?
Is it like --
"nothin, nothin, nothin... WHOOOP TOO MUCH SHUT DOWN!!"

yeah. like i just don’t know how to calibrate except that i have a rough sense of how much intensity provokes a backlash but the backlash can be delayed by weeks or months so it’s hard to update off that
most recently like “no more techniques ever >:[“
