    General Drained But Still Everhopeful

    A month or two. I know it sounds like "running away", "isolating", etc. I am dealing with my own inner feelings of "abandonement". It sounds like such a joke to the outside.

    Toxic Parent

    Dear Sianm I can really relate to this. Some women should never have had any children of their own. Some women marry for all the wrong reasons and attract the most awful men as life partners. My mother made some awful decisions in her life that affected her children, we had 13 years of near...

    Feeling Like I'm Sealed In A Vacuum.

    Hello Nomedic, I read a previous posting of yours where you described where you have in the past, I gather worked, in hotspots in the world, amongst others the townships of South Africa. I can just imagine the horrors you have witnessed, we are from South Africa and this country is steeped in...

    How Many People Aren't Functioning?

    Hi Cdg and everyone. My husband has only in recent years been able to acknowledge his trauma that stemmed from his parents not even wanting him to be born. At the age of 33 he had a total breakdown after numerous suicide attempts. The edited version is that we met and married and he is trying...

    General The Angry Thread

    Hello I am new here and this is my first post. I am not misunderstanding the purpose of this anger thread, but I am also quite cheesed off that I have spent the past half hour trying to open up the introductions page of this forum to no avail. I seem to be able to get into this Angry Thread...
