Thank you all for the support and encouragement. Seeing T 2x/week is definitely going to make a difference.

I read the 1st chapter of The Courage to Heal last night and did the writing exercise. I did find that I had to stop at points to clear my head. I've read the book before, just zoomed through it and got nothing out of it. I'm determined to let it help me to heal this time.

"Does it hurt?" asked the Rabbit.

"Sometimes," said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. "When you are Real you don't mind being hurt."
