Mental Block


Mental Block: a condition in which a person is unable to continue his thought process or the painful thoughts in his mind are repressed.

Dr. Channing is concerned about my resistance to hypnosis. She thought it might help me come to terms with a traumatic incident in my childhood. My brother had captured a jar full of grasshoppers and I freaked out. I broke the jar and let the grasshoppers go, but one of them died from the broken glass. I wanted to take it to the vet but Mama wouldn't let me.

I have no idea what this means.

  1. It means that little boys can be little buggers and little girls worry too much :)

  2. Dawn: Hypnosis is one of Dr. Channing's go-to procedures. Any excuse will do. Sigh.
