Thanks guys. I tried one session with a IC but walked out feeling kind of gipped. Maybe that particular IC just wasn't for me. She didn't offer up any kind of advice (not sure that thats what they're there for). I ended up spilling my guts to her just like I do with my mom. After 50 mins, I didn't feel any better than I did when i walked in. The bigger problem is that I can't afford an IC, at least on a consistent basis.
I do find comfort in talking to my mom and brother though. They love my W and are very understanding, so they don't try to crucify her every chance they get. I find great comfort in talking to them. I will try to find another IC though - any tips on trying to find the "right" one?
One of my self realizations was that since my mom passed nearly 10 years ago, I haven’t talked to anyone the way I used to talk to her. She always kept me grounded and would have never let me get this lethargic and complacent and if she was still here, I wouldn’t be on this forum. It’s great that you have her and your brother to lean on. I have the same disappointment in my IC so far but will report back next week after session 3 to let you know how it goes.

This was an accidental re-post. I hit the ”back” button one too many times on your thread. Sorry about that!
