Re: pacing; it may just be your way of self-soothing......Maybe you could take take up walking?
As far as parents teaching us to be autonamous? I misspoke myself. I only had a mother, and she really didn't teach me anything; except my need to get out (away from her)!!
I joined the army right out of high school and have been going ever since!
Pulled myself up by my bootstraps, as it were; I am the moderator of an abused survivors' group, just returned to school (age 61); won a scholarship, written my memoir, been published in a psych. journal; just returned from hawaii from the American Counseling Asssociation Convention (as a student I can be a member), and just keep going!
Driven to make a difference!
Hugs, Sassy
