troubled…he didn’t even want to say it. He wasn’t superstitious but he felt
that if he admitted it, some kind of fruition was bound. He was under
tremendous pressure. At times he felt like it might be too much and that he
would breakdown, not be able to handle it and find himself institutionalized…but
this scared him more than anything -the loss of autonomy. A troubled_____ was
one thing but it still allowed for some degree of autonomy.
A little light stuff, a little substance. A little of this, a little of that. Don't over think it. I know you won't.
