Yes, any changes have to start with me: that's really the only thing I can change.
I've learned the hard way that I cannot give driving lessons -- I'm a lousy passenger, and don't think fast enough on my feet to be useful.
So far I've been totally unable to convince Colleen that what I say about my own mental state is more accurate than what she thinks she perceives. Totally. That's one of the things I'm seeking help for.
