"I trust that, and I believe you, it's mostly for my own benefit I clarify." It isn't like this is something he enjoys talking about, but he doesn't feel like he has the luxury of keeping it to himself any more, at least from someone who can help him.
"I've been talking with Malcolm, I started shortly after I got here, and he's aware of my issue, but I had been hesitant to work on it. It's tangled up in everything, so it doesn't make it easier. A-and I'm aware that therapy only works when you're willing to let it." And while he doesn't think he's exactly ready to tackle the whole of the problem, it's become urgent enough that it doesn't exactly matter what he's ready for, he has to try at least rather than ignoring it.
"But I have a self-control problem that I can't put off any more, and if you can help, I cant ignore any possible options, because I don't feel like I can trust myself anymore. Not after this last week."
