In my defense, I feel like I've been trying to set boundaries with my father. I actually had a long discussion with him on the phone about a month back about things and what not to do. I just get "stuck" when trying to keep them, if that makes sense.

In my T's defense, I do understand where he's coming from, saying that if I want something to change with between us, it's going to have to be a BIG change from how I deal with my father. He says that little subtle changes won't work with my father, and he'll just keep overstepping boundaries.

I feel like I don't have the energy to make a big change right now with how I deal with my father, and that's where the frustration on both of us comes out.
