>---flutterby: Oh my gosh!! thank you for sharing this..... the "littlevoice" of being sensitive and giving fits me to a T!! I've actually had people ask me what I want-- and I have no clue.... my whole upbringing was catering to my mother, father and older sibling's needs. My wants and needs disappeared by the time I was 5 years old.
Experienced neglect mostly but also, emotional abuse and some physical/sexual abuse.thank you -- I'm going to print this out.... it's amazing.... I have even volunteered my whole adult life(like the article says!) and felt I had to-- in order to justify my existence.....
wow-- this is huge for me!!.... thank you again.
