Thanks, Judy. I do do this all the time, it's just that the answer is usually "no, it won't affect our work". I do a fair amount of testing in many areas, or I used to anyway. I really do trust him as much as I can trust anyone (except my husband). And I do know what prompted me to ask this time.
I just need to convince him that we need to work on this area now, not later. Sigh. I know intellectually that therapy doesn't last forever. But the idea of not having that place that really seems safe to me now is enormously scary. I'm not used to feeling safe, and it's a wonderful feeling. And my immediate reaction is just to cut off the emotions, with medications or whatever, so that I don't have to feel unsafe again.
