I'm in therapy and have been for years. We haven't gotten to everything (and probably never will). I had mentioned in the Personality Types thread that I had been musing over something and this was it. I love this forum because there *are* so many here like me. And normally anything I've been through has been experienced by someone else here. And this was the case again. Friendships shouldn't be as complicated as we can make them, but when your core relationships were so dysfunctional, it makes it hard to be functional with anyone else.
