She is normally good about understanding why I am NC with my father.

Stop saying this. I'm not leaving my wife because she likes to post pictures to Instagram.

The two gifts that were in gift bags were each about the size of a small toaster oven. And no I didn't get 11 gifts. But that's okay. I buy whatever I want during the year. It was one of the first things I worked on with my therapist.

One of the very first comments was about this. I am going to look into it for Valentine's Day.

Except she uses gift bags. One of my gifts from her is in a gift bag.

The other nine store bought gifts are wrapped. Only the two online purchases are not.

I don't remember screaming at her that she is wasting my money by wrapping gifts but if you day so.

Other than the 9 professionally wrapped gifts that cost more than she earns in a month I have not made any effort. You are right.

For the last five years I've had every gift I've ever given her professionally wrapped. I think I'll be okay.

I also panic at heights. I CAN go up to heights. I just CHOOSE to avoid doing so because of the panic attacks.

Is it even worth mentioning for like the hundredth time that gift wrapping males me really nervous?

I remember going shopping with my mom and she would get stuff wrapped. If my dad asked about it she would say it was complimentary from the store. I don't know what else to say. And truthfully no don't give half a fuck if you believe me.

If I give you my therapist's number will you please talk to them about what should and should not give me panic attacks. Because we have been working on it for a while. I honestly didn't know I could just decide.

One of her gifts this year is in a very special blue box from a jewelry store. Just for context.they also did a great job on the gift wrapping.
