Hey rick,

I like that you are taking such good care for your D.

Earlier you mentioned that you feel that you are the opposite of a narcissist and I wonder if that feeling isn't something to explore a little bit? I'm sure you are probably a naturally humble and self-effacing person, but perhaps some of your (previously mentioned) anger is coming from frustration at not really internalizing the solid parts of who you are.

I'm not suggesting you become a narcissist or try to be an extrovert if you are an introvert.. but perhaps explore peeling all the layers apart a little bit and see which ones are you and which ones are coping strategies that you've internalized.

It's just a thought -- and it gives you something to explore when all the mini-crises pop up.
