That said, my whining about having "no ID" is pretty trivial compared to everything you're having to fight (and Chaz too). Really sorry to hear things are such a mess at work. I guess on possible bright side is if you become a private contractor, pay is a lot better, right?
It all depends on the job market. I think I'd be able to get a good job. I have a ton of connections now that I didn't have 6 years ago when I got my current job. We'll see how things unfold. I just had dinner with my in-laws and although it would be a lateral move, my father-in-law could get me a job to pay the bills and avoid any gaps in my work history if this transition thing doesn't pan out.
I understand compromise, but complete control is not something that a therapist should advocate. It does not lead to a healthy relationship built on trust, communication and compromising. If you're willing to try it though, best wishes to you.
See, this is why none of my psych degrees are therapy related. Neuro-psych, behavioral analysis (to aid in deduction), etc...I can fly with those things. I always hated having to pass the therapy clinicals as I just wanted to lose it with people. I just figured there was something wrong with my perception of this therapist because of my prior biases to the areas. I appreciate the info, folks. Deeply and sincerely.
I've stripped enough of myself over the years for so many people. You know I never even celebrated most of my birthdays during my college years onward - including the big 2-1 - because I was having to be responsible for others or my country had other duties for me? I graduated from arguably the greatest medical school in the world and yet, to look after my family and let my younger brother get his BA and then MA and then another degree and a wide and a house and whatever else on my dime, I put aside that wonderful cv and spend more time now asking people how their crops are doing? Now I've gotten to a point where I don't even have a single book in the house - Hell, not even olives in the fridge (a food staple of mine; my favourite snack) - and, no, enough is enough. All respect to you guys but there has to be more than just the Realms where I'm at least a little me.
So, again, sincerest thanks.

Fast forward a few years when she dies, and I'm left jobless, homeless and with only the promise of promises to support me. I'm just now getting to the point where I feel self-sufficient and myself again, and even now there are some days where I still feel overwhelmed.
The one thing I've never had is a relationship where I had to reboot who I was in order to cohabitate with someone who loved me. Then again it is probably a primary contributing factor as to why I haven't had a truly serious relationship, because I'm not willing to alter my essence for anyone else; that and a couple of unfortunate acts of god.
That folks, is by far the most personal information I've ever shared in 6 years of being on this website. In the end I don't have anything to add other than incorrect punctuation, commiseration, and a general response of "That is whack".
Fans of Firefly, did you see that Dark Horse Comics is going launch a new Serenity comic which picks up where the movie left off?
I was really looking forward to the Shepherd Book story, but it was unimpressive. I'm not a fan of Firefly stuff in comic book form. I might try it, but I also tried the Farscape comic, and that was a day I wish I could have back.

"Those Left Behind" and "Better Days" are both decent Dark Horse series. The Shepherd Book story is weak because Joss thought that it would be a good idea to turn writing chores over to his little brother.

Why?
Not trying to be condescending. What's the reason for this extreme self sacrifice?
I created a macro in Word to turn off the "Smart Hyphen" (autoformat two dashes -- to a longer hyphen because one attorney prefers the two dashes) but I can't figure how to make it toggle. I ended up creating a separate macro/assigning it to a different key to turn it back on. (Not sure this matters, but when I first created them, they bugged so I ended up deleting some lines to make it work.) Here's the code of the macro to turn it off:

Oh, watched Fight Club. Really good. About soooo much more than fighting. This is the kind of movie I would rewatch, possibly buy but maybe not, as I wouldn't want to watch it again for a couple years. Maybe five years down the road I probably would want to watch it again. Anyone ever have movies like that? You know you're going to want to watch it again, but not for a couple years.
I did visual basic in high school. A bit rusty honestly. Did a lot of coding in high school. A friend and I were making an mmorpg with visual basic at one point. Then he got a girlfriend
