Perna,

thanks for your reply-- I always appreciate your posts..... they're so insightful and thoughtful.

Interesting about the idea of the "whole" head-- inside and out!!
and here you said:

I think that is where I'm at.... I'm very afraid.

yes, as I've replied back to Ben, I did feel recently that my psychologist just wasn't "getting" me and it left me upset and feeling defensive-- I got a response I hadn't expected.

also the "wine subject"... I kind of explained that also in the post to Ben.... I think it's that my T. is relaxed and I'm not.

Yes, talking to my T. would be the best.... I've just got to get the courage to do that! I don't want to get him upset.

Thanks again Perna, I really appreciate your reply!
