I'm glad you have passed Detachment 101 and one of the supplemental courses. Yes, you had a momentary "slip" but you jumped back on the program asap. Way To Go!
on the other hand, the "sweatshirt, gloves and socks" part got to me as
I spent hours worrying about our son being cold in jail and
having to wait two weeks before getting his sweatshirt and
socks. Somehow that really bugged me.
The high functioning autism segment also rings true. I don't know why the experts haven't gotten comfortable with
the idea that one can seek friends and fall into the diagnosis.
Maybe the near year will bring better times. Hugs. DDD
