Do you have a pet? I have 2 dogs they are my ESAs. I have a document. Deep breathing is helpful.

Then I can use critical thinking to assess if...

Thank you. I am not sure now he intended for it to come out they way it did or for me to react with fear this way. He is a good man he has been protective and loving. Really. The consequences are this. I need much more quiet time to deal with my fear. Much less discussion of current events. He...
