I'm positively certain I've thrown him off.
Today was a conjunction of weird events, arguments and decisions. By the end of it, I stood in front of the mirror, stared into my eyes, noted that they seemed to carry an intensity I don't normally have, and I simply said "leave". My body convulsed slightly, and then suddenly I could extend my energy. I can feel everything flowing properly, and my lack of motivation is gone.
All is good for the moment.
Edit:
Not good. I'm getting this continuous sensation not unlike being punched or hit with something forceful - no pain, just the repeated jolt of impact being applied all down my right side. Actually, it kinda feels like a repeated sledgehammer.
