Daisym,
I think TwinLeaf spoke so well, I can't add much. But I was struck by the saying be careful what you wish for when I read your post. It seems that part of you are playing a tug of war. You want therapist speak and you don't. I, when I started therapy, wanted my memories back so badly. Now the flashbacks come almost non-stop and I wish they would not. (Be careful what you wish). Then you were wanting him to drive, is he driving at the wheel now, or is he still letting you cruise. You want him to hold and protect but part may want to drive and man the wheel but doesn't feel strong enough?
I do know that pain, I have sat in that chair with so much pain thinking where does it come from and where does it need to go. Somewhere there needs to be a pain dump site, where we can take it in a bowl or bucket to dump and forever be rid of it :)
Maybe we can create such a site here on babble, just outside Camp Comfort where we can shed our pain before we step in :)
I am so sorry for your pain. I wish I could take it away and dump it for you.
