As helpful as you were today and last week, I don't want to do this anymore beyond next week. Call it drama if you want to. I don't care; a couple of the things you said today felt a bit harsh even though I know they were true. Maybe that's why I cried so hard at the end when you said those 2 things I so needed to hear. I felt like I was little and my grandma was hugging me again, moreso than I have ever felt that way with you in 8 years.

It's because you helped me see today that it is time for me to start taking responsibility for my own life, for my own happiness, no more excuses, no more drama, no more constantly apologizing for who I am. I'm glad you said everything that you said today, even the harder to hear stuff. Especially the harder to hear stuff. Thank you.
