    Help! I'm Too Scared To Go Back To Therapy!

    It seems really strange to me that she is telling you what you will talk about. Should you be given the autonomy there?

    It's Very Hard For Me To Tell My Mother About My Problems,

    As a mom, I know DMerish is right. She'll be scared. But if you recognize that you may not be able to handle her immediate reaction, let her know this in the e-mail, and let her know where she can immediately find you.

    Disappointment Or Sadness

    First Flashback In Therapy Session

    Yes, I have. Especially in the beginning of therapy. I think it is a really big step that you could share your traumas in this way, and that your therapist could respond well. I wish you well on your healing journey.

    The Pee Scandal

    Sounds like your neighbor may be a bit off. I'm not sure I would try to pick up a discussion with her about it. Do try to see her children as separate individuals though, who have no control over their mother's actions.

    News Count Me As Grateful For The Changes Coming In Us Health Care

    And certainly anyone over 40 should NOT be listened to!!! H-m-m-m-m, that would be half the population.... Nazi Germany knew better than to listen to the Jews. White settlers knew better than to listen to the Native American and the Indians. By all means, do not listen to a minority. It has...

    News Count Me As Grateful For The Changes Coming In Us Health Care

    My religious views are being imposed on when I am FORCED to pay for something that I consider morally reprehensible. You want to go have an abortion? Do so. But don't make me partially responsible by making me pay for it. Don't impose your religious views on me.
