In the end, all you can do is focus on you. I realized that yesterday when I was pondering why C wasn't "fixing" H. H isn't C's patient. I am. C is fixing me. Then he trusts that I will be able to set appropriate boundaries & take H's comments as information rather than a personal attack on my character.
Focus on you is a great thing. hugs
