Phil, I haven't seen the Princess Bride. I will add it to the list of movies I want to see.
Coach, come on now. What advice can you give me on the milkshake?

M22,H45,W45 S21/18D12 Retain faith that you will prevail in the end, regardless of the difficulties and at the same time confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be.
Either that or have a darn good reason not to have to take them.

I am guessing that he goes for no physical contact because in his mind any will lead to more, and then more, and he is afraid to go there. To him, once things start, he can't see stopping until the "end". So, I don't know how you can convince him that you don't have to have that to be happy for now. I'm thinking maybe trying to be close to him in situations where it is clear that things can't go too far, maybe. Just try to get him comfortable with the idea of being with you. And, at some point, he may have to realize that he isn't a failure if he needs meds. But, it might not be time to work on that yet.
Hi, hunky. Well I have tried to let him know that I am happy no matter what. But I think he'd like to carry it to the "end" and then is distressed if he has a problem. I think he's comfortable being close, but far too focused on the problem he's having.
I think it might be too much focus on the problem and not enough of going with the flow.
I'll have to try and be really sensitive to how he's feeling. No pressure, just being with him. I was so shocked last week when he went to see the doc. He mentioned calling him in the morning and went the same day. He never does that.

Sorry, but that is my own nickname for you after seeing your pic.
I'm sure the entire harem you've collected won't argue with me. : )
He is willing to take the meds, but I can see how much it is bothering him. I know with everything else going on in our sitch its the last things he needs to worry about. It could even be the stress of the whole sitch getting to him.
