such wise people on this board...I love that! Thank you all for your reassurances. Yes, I feel like an 8 year old half the time who has run away from home and wants her mother. But I need to *prove* that I can make it without her.
I think Kindgirl hit it too...I learned a long time ago not to rely on other people. And now that life is offering too many challenges to manage on my own, I don't know how to effectively get support from other people without becoming a burden on them. (At least in my view.)
Dinah is so right...doing what he wants me to do is very frightening. Because the potential for hurt is huge. To learn and grow I have to risk. But it feels like risking my Therapist, which I'm not willing to do.
