You know, when I think about my process of becoming, I realize that my head knew all this stuff for a few years already. The last year, when I had so much trouble with my therapist and that relationship, trouble which I helped to cause, everything sped up for me. It was like I hurtled myself headlong into catastrophe (mentally, a mental catastrophe) for a reason. A stone rolled away from somewhere, and exposed some knowledge to a heart ready to receive.
Or something like that, anyway. In any case I had to emotionally experience what my intellect already knew, for it to take hold in any way at all. It's got a toehold in there now, I think, it's been a few days .. but I'm still chemically dependent, and that's a worry.
