I was nodding to this remembering certain interactions on this thread...

I admit i do this a lot with your posts. Thats because they often show me a new vista or a new perspective on my life. Then yes i record my thoughts on your thread, altho not to bring the conversation round to me, nor to influence your thoughts. And when i was still seeing my t last year, i would then castigate him for not being more like your t.
I dont yet have a new process in place for myself, but im still third-person processing your t where i find i can.
Thanks for sharing!
