I thought I'd start a discussion where we can check in with members and use this space to keep in contact. It's a space to be able to say how you really feel and it's a space for the good, the bad and the ugly moments in our lives.

I am sure he is quite unsettled that I am going to a new counsellor @Teej, knowing full well that what I will be chatting to her about includes him and how I feel about his “lifestyle”, and what I perceive to be the impact of that on the rest of us. It’s everything he wants to remain under the carpet where he feels he has swept it to, and he is probably unsure whether or how much this will impact on him.
I imagine, just by the fact that he feels the need to hide some of his behaviours and stand guard over them, that somewhere in his psyche he understands that not al is well with him, and may fear being “outed” too.
It’s something else he can’t control, and yeah .... that seems to unleash emotional tornados......

I am really tired and so slow and finding it hard to be here on the forum atthe moment. I don’t seem to have much to give as it seems all my energy is being taken up trying to put one foot in front of the other (which feels pretty heavy and all consuming 😖) . Just giving a heads up that I’m really hit and miss currently.
