As you said yourself earlier - script. This isn't going to end anytime soon. At least you sound like you're in a good place and able to handle the changes as they happen.

Just remember never take anything he says personally and, at the same time, don't read too much into positive changes until you've seen them last.

You've got this. Stay strong.
