Triggered, that's the key. Some of us on 'this side' of the equation are triggered, it seems to me, like an alcoholic or an addict would be around their DOC.

Even if I have BTDT and would sincerely hate for someone else to go through what I have gone through--I have no control over whether they choose to or not. And then I'm only causing myself more pain, stress and anxiety over someone else's decisions and actions. When all I can really do is share what worked for me, and then leave it to the other person to decide how to proceed.

We all have the right to be "wrong".

happybeingme, you are welcome to keep the cape I think it matches your eyes beautifully
