> Hi,
> I really like how honest you are with your posts, I find them extrememly helpful I'm curious if a history of abuse has any bearing in sexual identity problems- or has it been proven to have no effect? I agree that the really good male pdocs can be very helpful with these type of issues although at times confusing since my abuse was at the hands of a manic depressive father. You sound very brave and obviously have done a lot of work (something that I'm having a great deal of difficulty with- I dissociate and SI when things get 'sticky') Thank you for sharing and take care- Judy
Hi Judy,You told me about being curious if a history of abuse had any bearing in sexual identity problems: a psychologist whose name is Charles Whitfield talks about this issue on his book "The child within".Sure the guy
is no Freud nor Lacan: still, he has simple but deep insights I've bought the book years ago and i found it helpful. It's a very very simple book, but i believe it to be an accurate and truthful portrait of people who have been abused.
