Jexa I REALLY identify with this. believe it or not, one of the things that most motivates me to keep going is to come to PC and be among all these brave and compassionate friends. When i see how resolutely they face their own struggles, I find no excuse to slack off in face of my own.

And this even more: I have looked long at the idea of divine Providence, and have accepted that that's how I got into this therapy, with this T, at this (late) stage of my life; and now I have to respond to that gift, to do my end of it the best I can, even when the urge to quit is strong.

I know it's hard. This is for you, friend
Thanks for this!
