> *sigh* I know I get hard on myself. There's this little girl inside see, and nothing's ever good enough for her mom. You get an "A", you better do it the next time. You sang a solo in a recital? Don't get your head all swelled up about it. I latched onto pleasing my teachers and I think a lot of what I've achieved so far this year as been the same thing, except I'm trying to please the doctors. See? I'm getting better!! I can stop crying! I can exercise and lose weight!!

Oh my, I think we need to start a club...You know my dad still chastised me at age 34 for not getting all A's rather than the 3 A's and a B I got. That was such an eye opener for me. Hello! My grades are none of your business, and are no reflection on you and your parenting abilities (or lack of them)! I finally would just answer, "fine" when he would ask about school.

But I find myself right now wanting to please my therapist and needing a great deal of reassurance that he doesn't think I'm too nuts or anything.

Take care,

gg
