I'd imagine it's quite common for those who are in therapy to find ways to run when they're faced with scary, painful stuff.
There's gotta be some kind of balance between knowing what you can handle, knowing when a break is healthy and needed, and running from problems. I just haven't been able to figure it out yet.

MUE, its so hard- this painful stuff. I really can't do it again, do it to myself.
Last session and first session, she told me that I had no support in my life, no one that loves me and that my ex in fact never loved me and that was way tooooo much for me to hear and I can't cope with that let alone with hearing anymore.
I hope that we can figure out this balance soon enough, I guess everyones gut reaction is to back away from danger. I KNOW, I need to work through this but a little step at a time not all together. DOn't take my two crutches away t
