Did she not SEE the courage that it took and the big big cost? Especially in these circumstances? Hope you have a better appointment with the psychiatrist on Friday. And hope you made the big call to the indigent organisation. The people I know do not live transient lifestyles because they are afraid - or it is not a visible fear. (Except, perhaps in cases of psychogenic fugue/amnesia: and I'm not so sure there is a fear mechanism here). Those must be some fairly heavy consequences.

I want it to stop. I want to protect you.

I am trying to help you, not to harm you. If I expressed myself badly, it was because I was desperate. I hate to see you destroying yourself, and I think I have a right to say that I understand a bit of what drives you to it. Please don’t cut me off. I am trying to help you, not to harm you.

It would probably just make the client confused or guilty or both. So everyone in your family is dead? The client seems a bit demanding. Is this his first freelance job? Yes.
