Yes he was great. Yours sound pretty good too. That movie is damn good

but it's also helpful. The relationship Antwone has with his psychiatrist is a good example for both of us I think... I know what you mean - having someone care for you- no strings attached, no conditions, no catch... that is freaky!! I guess in the beg. part of me thought that I had to give my former psychiatrist something in exchange for his love, but he helped me realize unlike my abuser there are people out there who will give and not take.

That is the best! When you have a T who acknowledges you've taught them as well! It is an amazing feeling that you can touch someone in their profession...make a difference! I would never let them go
