Thanks Psyclox...

The "jerk" is not the guy who ripped off my family...he is someone I have known for 6 years (dated on and off)...

He keeps trying get me to be more intimate....

And I can't, not after what I have been through with the sociopath....so he does need to back off.

When I decided to go into the hospital it was his mother that said "You're in the mental ward"!!!! With no tact whatsoever. And I was not that bad...I admitted myself because I hadn't been able to get a handle on things for 6 months. I barely met admission criteria. My T had to call them up and explain the PTSD and the complete, sudden, and total meltdown I had experienced. He wanted to nip it in the bud..

I was a big, studious, funky, hippy nerd who went to a very taxing undergrad school. His family is a disaster in more ways than one...and has picked on me for as long as I can remember.
