Glad you got through your dentist appt, Argo. I have not been back to the dentist since the tooth pulling/dry socket incident which is quite awhile ago now. :shudder: they keep texting me that I'm overdue for a visit but I delete them as fast as they come, it's gonna be another long time before I can brave going there again!

Just had my first in-lesson tears of the year. (25 points, as my old viola prof would say.) The kid started telling me how art was the last subject of the day and her teacher was giving her a hard time for drawing eyes wrong. Poor kiddo.

The district attorney's office just called me. My husband wants to plead to lesser charges that will get him 48 months in jail, with a 20% reduction for good behavior. Of course they wanted to know how I felt about that and I didn't know. I told them to do what seems fair. I don't know if that seems fair for what he's put me through. That also means that in less than 4 years I suspect he will be looking for me, restraining order or not. I'm shaking and crying and I have no idea what to think or feel.

Hugs, NP... Can you find out what time he would do if he didn't plea to lesser charges? If he was found guilty in court? Just wondering how much of a difference it is.

He was charged with 5 counts of Arson 1. The minimum sentence for that in my state is 90 months each count, so a max of 450 months. That doesn't mean he'd get that much, and that would be excessive in my opinion. I guess I keep thinking he should get punished for the abusive behavior and I guess that's the wrong way to think of it. I don't know what seems fair to be honest. I was thinking he'd at least get 90 months.

If the sign of a good therapist is to sit there patiently while a client tells you, at length, what is wrong with your profession and why, without losing patience or getting defensive or upset or taking it personally, well then, Info is a good therapist.
If the sign of a batty therapist is to explain to the client that we all have “a little spirit man” inside of us who can be either a healing or destructive emotional force (no, she didn’t mean soul, or conscience, I asked), well then, Info is a batty therapist. Eta: AY, I told her your therapy metaphor of Searle’s Chinese room hypothesis. She thinks it’s a GREAT (yes, said in all caps) metaphor for therapy.

That's horrible. I had no idea they didn't factor in his abuse. I'm glad you told them about the no contact order. I hope they don't cut a deal with him.

They probably are focused on the fire and not the previous abuse because it’s the immediate crime he’s charged with—a threat not just to you but to your neighbors as well. And since he is dangerous to you beyond the fire, I would take the opportunity, since they asked, to tell them to hit him as hard as they can. And I would use the victim impact statement to let your voice out. You’re absolutely not irrelevant or worthless; I think it’s just the way they do things. ![]() |

I hate the Day Program lady I can't believe she said "I didnt realise you suffer from worry too?" What why cant she say anxiety and PTSD I nkow she doesnt realise that my biological parents tried to kill me and adoptive parents were neglectful and I had a boyfriend who shot me in the leg. etc. Just a bit of "worry" I think.

I figure I’ve been badly hurt by mental health professionals who seemed quite sane and I never saw it coming. Might as well try it the other way around this time?
