That means so much to me, Hannah. I was getting all ready to take a board break, and curl up and cry for a few days. (I'm sort of hormonal myself right now, too. That's been affecting me more than usual lately.) It helps a lot to hear that I helped you, in whatever small way, in your therapy. Psychological Babble is so special to me and I put an extra measure (perhaps too much) of myself into it. When I was trying to work out my therapy issues, it was so baffling to me. I read all I could and yet it still seemed like such a solitary struggle. This place was a revelation. And Psychological Babble has been terrific for me.
I was the designated picked on kid from sixth thru ninth grade, so I know what you mean. The frustration was immense. Nothing I did made any difference. Whatever choice in my behavior led to ridicule. And I couldn't manage the nonchalance that was the only true way out. It still affects my behaviors today, and is one of my recurring therapy themes.
No, of course I don't see your name as a deceit. My own name isn't Dinah, although I've begun to think of myself as much as Dinah as by my own name (which incidentally, I detest). That's one reason I rarely sign my posts. :) With Babble coming up frequently on search engines, it would be foolish to use your own name. I still get a shock when I look up transference or luvox and get my own posts as Dinah.
Thank you again for your post. It gave me a lift when I was feeling really down.
