frustrating when you want to but know you don't need to isn't it? fwiw i really don't think ringing t is pathetic, or asing for what you want, i think calling him to talk about it would be a really good thing to do. if you're still reluctant to call maybe try some of the dbt skills first, then if they don't work you can call him, say you've tried but not getting anywhere with them

Being almost devastated is horrible because it lingers. But total devastation brings a kind of peace. It lets you give up.

The line between normal and crazy seemed impossibly thin. A person would have to be an expert tightrope walker in order not to fall.
