Quote:
If depression stems from unresolved childhood issues, and my H is now disowned from his father since our S, does that mean he will not come out of replay until those issues with his father are addressed/resolved?


First, issues are NOT resolved in Replay. Replay is the state where the issues are avoided. Dealing with issues begins in/with Liminal (Overt) Depression.

Second, for many MLCers the trigger is a death--and that is often the Father's death. The issues may have been with the Father, but they are internal.
