Elaine is just in pain. I think Elaine has become very very sad woman. She is someone who is in deep need of many hours of analysis and I like to think that I'm not that type of person.
I have an internal protectiveness where it's like if it comes to just me as frightened as I am of losing someone I love or things going sour or simply being alone there is a dark place in my brain where I'm like It could happen and I'm okay I'm prepared.
