I wanted to say thankyou to mangosteen for sharing their story
It's funny how you feel like such a freak and that you're the only one
who can't get past the fear and just get on with it and get happy!!
I got a lot out of your thread and also the one by pollyanna about how to deal with negative people
I was always trying to fix things when my mum criticised now i really get it
by having anything to do with it gives it credibility and rationale and feeds it
walking away gives the energy nothing to latch on to
