That is because she would, if she detected a thought of leaving her, react in such a threatening manner that I would give up the idea altogether, so that she would not detect my thought and kill me. Or so it seemed.
Which means she might have qualified for the diagnosis of borderline: leaving her was such a terrible threat to her. And I assume that everyone is the same way. I mean, I have emotionally thought that for a long time.

What i have found they mean by the term "spiritual" is more along the lines of recognizing your own scared, inner gifts or value. I'm not sure i'm explaining it right! But it doesn't involve prayer or the like. At least not in my therapy. So, if IFS looks to be something that might interest you, it's a possible option.

Did you mean to say "scared", or "sacred"?
