GF,

Personally, I would find another counselor. I honestly don’t know how those stories help with your panic attacks but…

Moving forward is not moving on or giving up…

Moving forward is taking responsibility for you, for your life, and making yourself a better, stronger person…

So that eventually you can move on…

Out of MLC land, into a future that is full and bright and shining…

With a healed heart and head…

Who will be in that future with you…

No one knows right now…

But that is way down the road, over the hill, and around the bend, which is way to far forward to see right now…

As far as your D, that is something else you can’t control…

Her R with her dad is her R with her dad. While you can try to help her understand, that is really all you can do…

She is old enough to have a good idea of what she sees as normal and abnormal behavior and while it sucks, that too is something that they will have to work out…

All you can do is be there for her and be strong for her, and do your best to help her deal with her emotions regarding it all…
