Subject: Re: what were your childhoods like?

Hello,

thanks for the support.  I do have a psychologist and she is very good. 
  The difficulty for me is that the abusers linked what they did with my 
"weakness" which included my impairments.  I've been told that was 
intimidation, but it leaves me very confused about how I understand 
issues of disability.

I've been told that basically the best approach is to dismiss what they 
said as not worth consideration and figure out what I believe.  I tend 
to push myself too hard and then I get exhausted and need to drop 
everything and relax.  I don't like going from one extreme to the other 
like that.

Mary Katherine
