#1fan, you seem to be saying to Racer you are comfortable with yourself and not motivated to change unless I read it wrong or misinterpretated it, and if so I am sorry. but in all your previous posts on this board you seemed to be so upset and in your posts to other boards to seem to be in a very dark place. Or was that just at the time when you couldn't find your keys, etc. Maybe we were seeing a mood swing and not you when you went back down. I don't think Racer is saying you are mentally ill. Hey I don't think saying anyone mentally ill is a bad thing. I think I am and my family would be appalled to learn I think that. They think I am fine, they just are in denial. That said, there is no shame in admitting you have some issues or problems that lead to therapy or seek advice. I don't think her post meant that at all.
We are just trying to help you see that maybe yourself one way when in fact you have symptoms of a different type. I know that I was freaking out about an issue not to long ago and Babblers helped me see that it wasnt my past issues that was affecting how I was seeing or rather dreading seeing my family but something everyone has problems with.
Sometimes we are too sensitive toward things close to us and can't see the real problem. I think maybe that is what she was trying to help you with.
Anyway, I hope you are feeling better now and have had some insights into what is making things seem so hard. Good luck. rk
