Dear (((Cat)))! Winter here in Alberta has been a long cold one as well, but having spent 26 days in your city, I can say that yours has been much colder and more snow has fallen, so I feel for you. When you said that this will be your 4th counsellor in 3 years, it reminded me of my sister who had 2 psychiatrists die on her when she was getting counselling. If a person has rejection/abandonment issues it can be triggering. When a person doesn’t feel good about the way they look, it affects how we see the world and how we interact with it. I was doing well with my weight loss efforts till I spent those days in your city. I haven’t been able to get back on track and have gained the weight I lost, back. I too feel stuck in a rut with my life. But only I can change that, and I don’t know what that is going to take. But you’re gamble free for a very long time, so that’s a HUGE achievement. Happy St. Patrick’s Day!! Carole
