Hello Brokenpuppet and welcome to babble.
In my experience, I have found babble to be a great (and lifesaving at times)community.
Admittedly, I'm more open on babble than even with my T. That's probably not good, but I'm a work in progress.
I have a horrible time with decision-making when I'm conflicted. The only thing that's been able to help a bit is making a pros and cons list, or a best case and worst case scenario list.
Seeing the cons written down plainly, helps me to not over-embellish them in my mind.
7 years is a long time. It is interesting how toward then end, things get easier to reveal. I found that myself with my ex T.
Support groups such as babble may help you while you are abroad. Also, I find that keeping a diary as if I'm telling my T what's going on has been a nice coping mechanism for me in between sessions.
take care
