I printed your post and read it to my husband. He is slowly realizing how not alone I am with this.
He is slowly beginning to understand how everyone is affected in similar yet different ways.
He was particularly intrigued with the concept of manufacturing crises as a distraction, or as a distorted coping mechanism. I could see he seems to think I do this all the time.
I saw amazement in his face when I got to the part about the dishes. He has never, ever denounced me when my house has suffered but he never understood either. It just did not make sense to him.
He has never even seen babble much less use a computer yet last night he said that babble is helping him and I was stumped. This may be why. Things are becoming a little clearer for him now.
Thank you for your response to me.
