She was sad that you asked or sad that you felt that? How can everyone be important?

My T in college urged me to get an apartment so I did not have to go home on summers, despite the financial hardship. He suggested balancing the financial hardship and debt against the agony of being at my parents' home, the possibility that I would relapse into a serious eating disorder, and the certainty that I would become mortally depressed. I got a job and took out a loan, and I ate potatoes and onions and ramen a lot, and
for me, it was worth it.
