One of my major turning points was quitting marital counseling and making that time count towards my mental health alone. Nothing was going to come from RAH's input in counseling while he was active in his addiction except haziness, lying, and the deflection of the therapist's attention away from my needs.

My one hour a week is a hard boundary. We make the time and money for that appointment no matter what. It's my time for my health and well-being.
