Ok, I am just getting caught up, but I just wanted to highlight something Snodderly wrote:

How do the WAS feel when they wake up? Exactly the way we are feeling when this whole thing goes down. You see, we are educating ourselves right now, finding ways to cope and heal as much as possible. The WAS isn't doing any of that for a long time. They are too busy being angry and playing w/self-medication. Eventually the tides will turn and they will feel exactly how we do today. I've seen this in several cases and believe me, it's much harder on them when reality comes knocking on the door at wake up time. By that time, we are settled, some what healed and are starting to enjoy life once again.
Our MC/my T told me basically the same exact thing. She said "I promise you, he will feel the pain one day, and by that time you will probably be well past it".
