Reviewed July 2025

I want more time to talk/ have a period of time to vent things off my chest first, then get solutions afterwards when I am ready for them. I am very logic driven and usually respond the same way, but when I'm stressed and anxious I need a relief and listen before I can really process. The call cut, did you lose power? I hope it wasn't Wiley again! Thanks again.
