Yes, kind of like a peer counselor, he has been talking about me getting more involved with helping people, asked if I was interested in maybe volunteering at the womans shelter and so on! I am not ready for that, can't see myself helping right now anyway. He says that it is not uncommon for people to stick around and help others once they have turned the corner in healing. He runs a cancer support group and he says he has people that have been in it for years, first for support themselves then as peer conselors once they are in remission.

Yeah, the paper clip thingy is interesting, next appt I plan on bringing a few with me, I want to see if it is actually true, keeping my hands busy focuses me enough to stay in the room with him and lets me get out my feelings alittle easier.
