Madonna/Whore Complex (part 7)

[Heywyre]

You wonder if you'll get counseling and then still be unable to deal with or fix whatever is wrong and then find yourself completely out of options.

CE - this is the line that jumped out at me and is EXACTLY how my H feels. He is a VERY intelligent man (when it comes to diagnosing OTHER people - common, I know) and his major was criminology and he minored in psych (ya, go figure eh?) and one of his favorite lines is "there isn't a psychologist or psychiatrist out there that can fix me or give me the answers"

So his perception of being "fixed" is very low. However, he has managed to accept the fact that the counselling has helped him recognize what the problem was/is (i.e. the attachment theory and his lack of connection with his primary caregiver when he was a child) and feels this is the closest he will ever get to having an "answer"
