Just figured it out [House and Wilson]

I was just sitting on the front porch, having a cigarette and being contemplative.  Thinking, actually, about the longer fic on which I'm currently working, and about all the discussions lately concerning the changing House-Wilson dynamic.  And something hit me--hard.

I figured out, in an instant, why I'm so defensive of, and protective towards,

Gotta agree with that. Having sort of been in the carer role, I can attest to how it can wear someone down. But thankfully (or unfortunately) Wilson is a fictional character. I think Wilson is taking steps to stabilize himself because he is aware of what is happening-- and he is aware of how him going down is going to take House with him. Wilson seems to be reaching out for help- and since he really doesn't have an outside support system he's gone to a professional source for that help. Wilson would have considered his state and realized that him being messed up was going to reflect on House. Since House is outside that support loop he doesn't know exactly what Wilson is doing he's going to be uncertain of where these changes are leading and will probably be either clingy or-- seeing that Wilson seems happier and stabler-- House might try and push Wilson away to protect him.

You did go into Wilson seeking help in "The Devil's in the Details." I kind of see Wilson's action now kind of being like in that story. He's tired, yes, but he is trying to get that under control and I'm hoping eventually he finds the balance he needs so that he can continue to be there for House (cause I really don't see fictional Wilson being able to give up on House-- considering everything he's already gone through.)
