It does make sense. I can understand why it'd be a struggle for you, particularly with your fiance having his own concerns he's working on that are bleeding over to you. I see what you mean, that it wasn't a healthy support he was calling to offer but seeking to reassure himself. I think you did a really good job taking care of yourself in how you handled that.

I'm glad that you've been getting more support from family and PC during this particularly tough spell, even though you really want more support from your professional folks and it's not happening right now. Honestly, to me? Overall it sounds like you're doing a good job of handling it, even though it has to really, really suck.

You should be proud that you're back behind the wheel, and also proud that you went out to dinner. The fact that it was hard and yet you did it, is really impressive. Seriously, I work around serious car wrecks a lot, and just seeing them shakes me up. Getting back to driving after your experience takes a lot of guts. Driving to your appointment by yourself is really something.
