It has been quite a few months since I have seen the therapist I do now. At first it was very jovial like I had no problems but he kept trying to crack my shell like no one has before and it has helped a lot but I complicated matters. My roommate who has the same diagnosis as me decided he wanted to see him too. They made my roommate sign releases of information so that they could discuss his problems with me, the nurse and the counselor, but my roommate has occupied my time considerably. He was hospitalized and placed on a new medication that somehow allowed him to make a final decision about his sexual identity being gay and that he wanted a more intimate relationship with me.

The therapist told me I broke too many boundaries by allowing this to happen and that we are too intermingled to sort out, or at least he was short with me, and I see him the day before my roommate sees him. In a bizarre twist he told my roommate to confess his sins to a Catholic priest and learn philosophy in an academic way. My roommate scratched the confession comment but wants me to teach him philsophy so I made it about the Greeks and made a history lesson for him accompanied by The Birth of Tragedy, by Nietzsche for the philosophy aspect to get him up to speed as he had no formal training before in any subject.

My roommate has been copying everything I do and it's getting frustrating. I don't know how to go into the therapy session now without bringing him up, as I live with him and he wants to spend all his time with me and I feel overwhelmed by his demands on me. I put an end to any physical intimacy and hope he doesn't seek it anywhere else, as he is heavily medicated. I am here to support him and encourage him but my therapist I feel painted a picture of me to be the sole parent of my roommate, as it is I that has to prepare everything for him and I am still a little perplexed by the comment about my roommate confessing his sins to a priest. He is not even Catholic.

I don't know what is going on anymore and I am at a loss of how to set boundaries with my roommate except by placing some of his weight on his PSR worker to do his errands, but still he lingers on my mind. I love and care for him but I don't know how to make him more independent of if I should just move to some other state and claim same-sex union and get more benefits from the government. I am just kidding. I don't know, how do I get my roommate out of the picture for what I am doing with my life?
