I'm so glad you have a new thread! I love what's going on for you right now...the positive changes you have made in your life, the getting involved and getting out and doing stuff! You have come SO FAR, my friend, in so many ways.
You made some interesting comments about C -- feeling frustrated? Care to elaborate? You know...there is a theory that the client <-> C relationship often mimics the client's experience overall in life (of course, that could be bunk) but sometimes it's interesting to check out what irks you about C and see if it resonates.
