Terry,
I am scared shitless. You and James are sticking with me even though I ran away. That scares the shit out of me . I have always gotten away with running away because I am terrifeied of confrontation and figured nobody would ever care about me enough to try to stop me when I ran. Part of me is terrified and the other part of me says that you and James do care about me. . You know what ? I do want to heal and get stronger but nobody ever stuck by me to say its ok to feel ...and be myself ..and at the same time let me know they cared enough to stand up and be Tommy.
