Thanks for the sage advice
The counseling part has been hard. As a child she started wearing black her parents freaked out, and sent her to a therapist recommended by the school counselor. She has told me that this person was so ridiculously clueless that she refuses to go to another counselor or therapist. This has made recovery hard, but at the same time there are some benefits. I've seen in other threads how the wrong therapist can just screw everything up. As for myself I have been going to my own ic. He has been advocating for me to man up. Just wish he would have introduced me to NMMNG earlier oh well. I may post updates over the weekend. As always I appreciate the after action reviews.
