Hi GG,
Thanks for the response. I think it's really good advise--just focus on whether or not I'm getting good therapy which I think I am. I know she's struggled around some stuff with me but that's okay--I do think she's very aware of making sure she doesn't get in the way of helping me.
I did have a pretty good laugh about it--with my boyfriend--so maybe like you say--try and keep it light if it's not getting in the way.
Thanks again!
