I just read your threads and I will say, you have tenacity. You just keep journaling with very little feedback.
LOL, yeah... figured the writing was therapeutic whether I got feedback or not...

You haven't been at this very long and you both apparently backslid to bring you to this place so bandaid 180s wouldn't be a good thing.
What's up with that?
More to come regarding this, but I think the short answer is we both had some unaddressed issues (her, codependency; me, self-esteem/depression...maybe some passive-aggressive tendencies in there too). We both decided to start IC to deal with that stuff.
I don't want to be over-confident...or jinx myself, but speaking for myself I've made huge strides regarding going out/having people over, and have really been enjoying both. I don't know...somewhere along the line I forgot how much I enjoy other people's company...and perhaps just as--if not more--important, how much they enjoy mine.
