Excellent post about therapy. Divorcing with four young children is brutal.
You also might be on to something about mirror. That’s why I thought to ask him. Without teasing or jocking but actually ask. People might look at themselves a lot not because they admire themselves but because of variety of other reasons such as NOT admiring themselves. I stared at myself in the bathroom mirror last night because I discovered that I ate so much during holidays that I gained weight and was trying to figure out where exactly I gained. I was twisting and turning staring at myself naked. Admiration was the last thing on my mind. All I had on my mind is why the heck I ate those Christmas cookies
