starting therapy

When I listened to the morning radio DJ giving out advice for people suffering from codine addiction, and the thought crossed my mind that maybe that would make me feel better, I figured it was time I accepted that I am in serious trouble. I have my first therapy session tomorrow, and I am petrefied. I have been keeping a lid on so many tears for so long now that I am terrified to even go there. There is a great line in "The Lord of the Rings" where Bilbo says something like " I feel thin, like butter spread over too much bread" - to this day it is still the most resonant description of parenting young children I can find! I sit alone in an office all day, so I am sending this out into the ether, my own version of therapy I guess
