Dear Deb:  I hope I am not overstepping my bounds, but from several things you have shared, I am wondering if now isn't the time to back off in how often you see your counselor?  Maybe go back to once a week?


I have really needed to cling to mine over the years to help keep me safe and functioning.


I had another counselor say me having to see them isn't a weakness but a strength I recognize I need help.


Just a suggestion Deb as you seem  to be a very kind loving soul, and I am wanting you to be as happy as you can.


hugs,  Josie.

A hug can turn your day around.


The ultimate freedom we have as human beings is the power to select what we will allow our mind to dwell upon.


I am an unique, beautiful, unrepeatable, miracle of God.

Hi Deb, I am close to your bargain for therapy as my copay is $20, she needs to renew it in January, and IF they renew it, I am good for another year of unlimited visits.


I know how you mean and I use to deal with my sisters and even a "friend" in Alanon bragging she was all better and didn't need therapy anymore! Ha on that one as she has returned to our joint therapist several times.
