Why are you worried?


I am worried because one of my 180's was to listen to W. Something that I became very bad at over the years to the point of W giving up telling me half way through things. I would just say things such as 'yeah', 'ok' etc and she could tell i was not paying attention. The only answer I can think of for these 'chats' about the future are very similar words! I don't want her to think I am not listening, as I really am.

Plus there must be a way to answer that is better, one that makes her believe I am getting on with life, and I don't need her, yet also does not give her extra help and re-assurance that what she is doing is right?

I feel like I'm in thick forest, I'm slowly drawing a map of the way out, but not sure yet which side of the forest I will emerge.
