Several years ago, he was more concerned with how long I would be treated and whether I was going to become dependent on therapy. He's much more focused now on having me be well, and how he can help that process, and he doesn't personalize my moods the way he used to. I don't think all that just comes with being with me. I think all the stuff in the news has really helped him take what's going on with me a bit more seriously.Mair
