ReplyDeleteVery powerful and educating TT, and as I qualified it is a good thing I have a good psychiatrist and will be starting counselling in May.
ReplyDeleteMy TT is up darling.

ReplyDeleteGreat list...I would only add that you have to find the RIGHT counselor...they are NOT all created equal...every person is different, there is NO one-size-fits-all in counseling. Keep looking until you find a counselor who works for you.
ReplyDeleteHappy T-13!
Interesting list. Informative, too.
