Why do I have the feeling that it's all about to hit the fan now that my kid's T is become more aware of my eating habits and learning about that one weekend I had in February? This will be the year that someone tries to medicate me. I have a feeling. Not that it's a bad thing, but it's something that I am cautious or nervous of. I don't like some of the side effects. The whole idea would take some getting used to. My kid's T demands to know about that weekend and I really find it hard to go into specific details with anyone. I can deal with telling someone if I eat or don't eat, but I don't know about much more than that. Normally, I don't care, but with this I am scared and embarrassed to admit and confess what happened. I've been working on the note to my kid's T. I might even drop it off tomorrow. I plan to put a bow on it, LOL. If I was being a lot more specific about details and what happened that weekend, I'd use giftwrap, too. Confessing I just don't know what to make of life and everything right now. I hope he understands.

I know it is scary, but he will understand and it will be ok. {{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} You should see the stuff I just confessed to one of my professors last night. I commented that I was probably telling her too much, and she said not to worry about disclosing too much: self-disclosure is good for your mental and physical health. I tried to keep all my issues hidden for most of my life, and now I'm not doing that anymore, and it's still scary, but it feels better at the same time. Know what I mean?

Your kid's T sounds like a good guy who is concerned about you and wants to help you to be ok. What is going on with you is relevant to working with your child also, as even if your child doesn't know all of it, kids do sense things. It's ok if you can't go into details. What you have written I'm sure will be a good start, and if you are more comfortable sharing more with him later then you will have that option. Picture us all holding your hand for confidence if it helps, 'cause you know we are with you in spirit.

Hi Inky!! So, what's the latest? Did you bring the note in? Did you put the bow on it? Or on your cute head? :-)

You are working SO hard!
