Hope you guys don't mind... I have adopted you as my group...
I've tried to get someone to help me "get over" my upbringing and the subsequent "past" I've accumulated because of my upbringing, but all the therapists in my health plan want me to just "move on- don't look back". I admit that that type of therapy has helped me learn "coping skills", but wouldn't it be healthier to not internalize the stress this "acting" causes?? I've never been more bodily unhealthy as I've been since starting the Cognitive Behavioral Techniques.... My bowels are a mess, my migraines have come back, I have a continually pinched nerve in my neck, et cetera, et cetera... I'm not mentioning this just to complain. I'm citing these things because if I could just get some kind of closure with the "I" that was created, I would hope that I could start to change and not HAVE to act anymore.
My frustrations are that BECAUSE I cope SO WELL, I can't get the type of help I WANT.
But, Daisym, thanks for letting me vent, sorry...
