Insight in my turn

Care gives me something constructive to do with hypervigilance instead of looking for a fight I don't want.

And earlier I wrote about not perceiving people as having needs until I can't meet them.

Which on the one hand is the tired old story of measuring myself by failure rather than successes; and on the other is, as Flippa points out, a case of only perceiving threat.

Two things both at once.

Flippa is good at this shit :-) Writing a really excellent series of self-analytical posts on boundaries atm.
