Pegasus,
Thank you for the encouragement. It definetedly has been a very difficult week. I see T twice a week. The first two times we talked about some of the surrounding issues. On Friday T said "Coconut we're dancing around the issue" and he tried to get me to tell him. After sweating, hyperventilating, heart racing and shaking for 45 minutes, only one sentence came out. I feel like such a failure. I know this ain't supposed to be easy but wow I'm amazed at how hard this is and how I have no words. I'm really nervous about going back to T this week and whether or nor I will be able to put all this into words.
