Well put, Polarbear.

Trust is one of those internal states, like fear, that doesn't tell you much about what's going on outside of you. The feeling may or may not be accurately representing the ascertainable facts.

Better to work with the facts: is each need being addressed appropriately? If not, how to fix it?

Hang in there, Pemberley, you can do it.
