Re: Why was I not diagnosed when I was a child!

[Robbo]

Right on Sadona,

The therapy I’ve gotten has really set up a solid foundation for me to learn a lot of the tools we have here. And Yep, we do have to feel all those crappy emotions. If we refuse, they attack our physical health, and the cycle of crazy just keeps us spinnin and we end up spun out so to speak. AAck!

Try to have a sense of humor. I found mine after doing a lot of therapy. Be very picky and careful about choosing a the right therapist for you. I feel like I got lucky when I first started out. I also had friends at the time who were going through the same stuff. Lot’s of support groups n stuff.

I remember back in the 80’s I was in therapy about childhood stuff, and just hitting a big mattress with a stick in my garage to get past the anger would always help me get a lot of gut grinding pain outa me. Lot’s of tears n snot n curling up in the fetal position. It’s not the same for any of us. It sounds like you’ve got the right attitude. This process can be easier for folks nowadays, there’s much better help available. Just be choosy and patient.

K, take a look at this one
