Oh, Widget, I totally hear you about the whole banging-the-head-against-the-wall thing. It reminds me of those stories one hears about children in orphanages in Eastern Europe -- how their physical needs are met but since no one ever picks them up out of their cribs and holds them, they develop self-soothing behaviors ... like banging their heads against the wall. Literally. Which is also something I did when I was just a little baby. My mother was in the throes of a psychosis ... I think maybe I am just lucky to be alive. Thank you so much for telling it like you see it - I'll see my T tomorrow and your story gives me strength.
