I would absolutely speak harsh truths to my husband - and I HAVE done so - when the coddling, justifying and lying and calling it 'just a slip' no longer worked.
And I did not say you do not need support. You however, would take a walker over doing something that actually propels you into the real world functioning among flesh and blood people because you are insecure.
You have been hugged, cheered, encouraged, understood and had your back patted repeatedly and been given idea after idea as to how to get back out there and carve out a life for yourself. This has been done repeatedly over a very a long period of time and you just keep saying you get it but clearly you don't.
I hope you got that link KerryK posted. It sounded really good. Of course, you're the only one that can get yourself up and out there.
