A Mobile Doubt

Posted on February 23, 2011 in Anxiety PTSD Relationships Therapy

My new therapist assures me that relationships go both ways; that no situation is the product of merely one of the partners. I am afflicted by what can be termed as a mobile doubt. Sometimes I feel the other party is all at fault. At other times, I feel that the fault lies entirely with me. It’s either the rage and bitterness at what the other has done or the guilt for one’s own screw-ups.

Then there are the relationships where one has been thoroughly rejected. They are like being murdered without the mercy of the consequent freedom from pain.

This I live through.
