Dr. Phil Episode

So this Dr. Phil episode is cool for a couple of reasons. This episode is about a guy who cheated on his wife with somewhere between 1-5 nannies. (Up for debate.) I recognized a chick from the dog park in the audience, which is hilarious, since it tapes in LA. The guy is fascinating to me because he is attractive and charming and smiles when he lies and just reminds me SO MUCH of Matt. He also works in either law enforcement or is a firefighter. At first they said he was a firefighter, but then reference him being an L.E.O., so I'm unsure. He's totally disgusting. The stuff he did to the nanny is gross, and who knows what the real story is, but it doesn't really matter, the psychology between him and Matt is the same.

Dr. Phil describes him as: "selfish, didn't care what anybody thought, it was just all about you."

Dr. Phil: What does your therapist say?
Wife: --This is a pattern.

Dr. Phil: THIS IS A PATTERN! That whenever he gets in a bind, then what is often described as consistent with Sociopathic tendencies, they will SAY anything and DO anything in the moment to get back in YOUR good graces. They don't feed bad about what they did, they FEEL BAD THEY GOT CAUGHT. Like I found God. Or I need your help.


Skip to around 56:45 to hear the part I am referencing, but I enjoyed the whole show. Listening to him lie is fascinating.

No, there is no news or updates about the case. It was 7 weeks on Thursday.  I was supposed to hear after 3-4. I gotta call the court and find out what's going on next week.

Honestly, I am feeling so much better. Each day this weight comes off more and more. I feel so much more free. Testifying, turning him in on the possible pedophilia, I just... It was so the right thing. I did what I was supposed to do, and while I will always wish with all my heart that I could pull Sydney and those kids out of this, I can't. My heart will ache for them forever and I hope they can escape that hell some day. I want to get out, and go out and be in public and be social again. I really do. It is very difficult, but I really do. I am back on the anti-anxiety medication, but it is working well and I feel pretty good. I feel fat, granted, but I feel pretty good.
