I can so relate.

I’ve started to track the small wins.

You pulled the car over.

That’s a big, small win. I think of the number of times I just kept driving. Then the times I slowed, but couldn’t or didn’t stop.

Stopping is the first step.

I too feel that force to not act or answer the compassionate call. Thank you for sharing. I expect as we learn to practice the steps leading up, each one gets easier. But who knows. :)
