Sorry that it has been so difficult for you and your siblings seem so terribly insensitive. It is time, I think maybe past time, for you to seek out those that can be understanding and supportive without judging you. Finding a support group may help you make friends that will provide you with the nurturing you need. I think I would break away from my family and not let them know much about my life (if anything).

Thanks for your wise words as always Eileen.

I intend on doing just that, the negativity from them just brings me down. It's time I worry about me because they sure don't care.

Thanks again.

Hello Eileen,

My therapist suggested it a while ago that I join a support group, the odd part of it is the only support group available is in the Mental health clinic which is about 1 hour away from me, it is hard to make my regular appt.s any way as well as my car is need of some repair. But I will contact her and see about arrangements for transportation to these. My other consern is talking about these things w/ strangers some of which I know frm my area. However I will try my best to do this.

Thank you for your encouraging words...
