Pinksoil,
I have been thinking about how to respond to your post.
You are very brave and have found a way to communicate some of your feelings with T. I believe that just the act of identifying the different parts and their needs is a huge step. But even bigger, to me, is:
</font><blockquote><div id="quote"><font class="small">Quote:</font>
didn't feel like we were terribly connected today. but we weren't disonnected by any means, either. we just.... were there.
</div></font></blockquote><font class="post">
That sounds so darn integrated to me. Just there, plain old just there. Nice.
Congratulations.
