Welcome jedi. I can tell you've been lurking because you've already added a signature. My guess is you've read many of my posts.
For now I only have one bit of advice...GET A DB COACH. You simply cannot do this without one. Maybe maybe maybe if you were in a no contact situation you could grow at your own pace...but it wouldn't be optimal. But when you are in contact, there will be MANY situations that come up beyond your ability to solve. Many of them will be permanent life altering decisions. Even if you would have done everything the way they advise, it helps to know you have someone seconding those opinions. And I PROMISE you they will be an invaluable resource for sorting out these feelings, and knowing how to put your best foot forward.
I say this to everyone, but for some reason not many people follow through. Let me ask- have you ever had anyone say they regret spending the money on a DB coach? Probably not. But there are many people with regrets about how they handled themselves at times. Don't be one of them!
OK, I'll stop hard selling now. Breathe, have faith, and may the force be with you.
