hrm, I'm glad to see that you recognized the depression signs and your counselor agrees. Some days are very difficult to roll out of the bed, but you have to do it. If you don't, you'll fall into that black pit and may not come out for a long time.
Your h is a very confused "young man" these days. He's actually acting out at the age of 17/18 because he doesn't know what to do and him admitting that he's walking back and forth, i.e., to see what you are doing, leads me to think that he is very insecure and is afraid that you are going to leave him. He doesn't know how to deal w/that issue. Oh, yeah, he's noticed the detachment and his mind is working twice as hard to understand it.
As for the toothbrush...guess he's going to stay right where he's at for the time being. Wonder if he'll park even closer to the front door in the next week or so....he's giving it all he's got to get your attention "mom"!
Happy 4th of July!
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
