calm down honey. these thoughts only have power over you because they are so
frightening. we focus on them because they are awful and unique. get hold of
some claire weekes or cognitive behavioral therapy. my own favorite is dr.
abraham low. you can find his site called "recovery inc" (don't use the
quotation marks). i remember him so many years ago when i was "going through
it" just like you. dr. low was (he's long dead) who dealt with mentally ill
clients years ago when they had nothing. his readings will tell you how
to"spot" your feelings and go through them. the person who became president of
his lay organization had been hospitalized for many years before dr. low got
hold of him and took control. no meds or shock treatment. lastly, don't be
afraid of medication, it is very valuable until things get under control. i'm
61 no and have raised my six children and worked many years. i was so upset
just like you, remember you are NOT perfect, you can only do your best and
that's plenty good enough. Oh yes, Dr. Low also writes alot about TEMPER.
Yes, TEMPER. Our fearful, arrogant, stubborn, perfectionist, etc. temper. I
never realized what a fearful temper i had, it was running me ragged. Well
enough, I'll look for your letters to the group. rose
