The eggshells are back ... and we're walking all over them again.

She apparently had a bad day at treatment yesterday. She had to read her nightly goal out loud in CORE group and they called bullshit on most of it. That made her mad. She really just needs to learn to be honest and to take personal responsibility, but she is fighting that so hard. She's still wanting to get an industrial piercing and thinks we are being unreasonable by not allowing it so she is threatening to just do it herself. She's also still insisting that we are overreacting to finding her getting high in her bedroom. She's back to being fascinated with the macabre - or at least putting up the front that she's macabre ... I'm still not sure which. She's cranky and defensive and argumentative. I'm really hoping this is just a last ditch attempt on her part to resist treatment and that she will finally start really seeing what's going on and really start working on changing and really start accepting that she is an incredible person. Hopefully we'll be able to discuss at least most of this in our family session today.
