after having some personal counseling for some time, my wife for the first time agreed to join me. It's been hard for her to see the need. We have some problematic communication issues with my having low level autism and PTSD. She has always thought it was my business I guess and had no desire to spend the money. This evening after a bit of a tiff, she brought up the subject herself. I am definitively going to follow up on it and I hope she means business. It sometimes seems that after sleeping it off everything goes back to the previous state, I hope not. Wish us luck. We are both serious in our own ways.
