Well, it felt horrible, actually. Very scary to tell somebody besides a T or a fellow SI-er.

But, she wrote back a bit ago and took it very well, and thanked me for helping her to understand me more. Then she started in on the "why don't you move here" stuff, which she throws out to me from time to time. She thinks it would be good for me to have family around. It's my family that f'd me up in the first place, but she doesn't know the worst of it and I'm not about to tell her. I have my life, and mental health folks I like and trust, here, and I'm not about to give them up and start over in another state.

I guess I'm glad she took it well, but I'm still kind of sorry I told. How weird is that?
