It feels so much safer to know I have someone to go through this divorce with. I have a local pdoc too.
I still have my original T where I moved from. Our phone sessions have been helpful, but it's hard to go from a face to face relationship to talking on the phone.
I was expecting a difficult divorce - long and drawn out - because of the nature of (please, just let him be) my ex husband. This is his nature. It's proving to be true. No children, simple assetts - and this draws out. My move is not even complete, though that will be remedied next month. A diagonal move is daunting, but I'm looking forward to that particular journey.
Now, having 2 marriages behind me, I'm done searching for the rescue, the person who take me away from myself. I keep bringing myself along for the ride. I doubt, though, that I'm a sufficiently resilient person to do This living thing alone. Years of therapy and I am still myself, funny that.
Not only can you not change other people, just how far back a reach into our own lives is a change in beliefs and self image able to be remolded? I must be past my sell-by date. This person I am, I think it's broken too much.
