((((((Huggs)))))))) those intense emotions, i believe, can only be conquered by TALKING about them (the memories associated with the emotions). i'm testing my theory in a few days as i enter a partial hospitalization program. i hope i talk, not withdraw. i'm afraid i'll break down completely if i let a few tears fall in front of someone. i'll let you know how things go.

do you have a counselor to talk to?
