> Are the arrangements REALLY still necessary?
Yes, I believe they are. Now mind you, my rational self knows how utterly stupid that is. But there are times I am not rational, and I have reason to believe this is one of those times. There is a firm plan in place, and I'm not sure that I would have the strength or the motivation to resist it at that moment. I find life barely tolerable now, and the loss of my safety would make it appear at least short term to be unbearable. It's possible but by no means certain that I could, or would want to, maintain control.
> I really think there is probably more to your anger than you may be acknowledging.
You mean that I see it as a sign of him not caring? Possible I suppose, but I long ago came to terms with the amount he cared for me. Other reminders don't hurt and so I don't think this one would. Pinch a bit maybe, but not hurt.
> And, one last thing. I am pretty sure you were the one that reminded me that there is no way a therapist can know what is going on unless you give him all the facts.
I agree. But something is holding me back on this one. I'm hoping to work it through sufficiently to understand why. Maybe it's as simple as the majority of me doesn't want to be stopped.Thanks, Miller.
