Hi, so_punk-rock! Thanks for stopping by - I'm glad to see that you're feeling at least a little better - enough to be out and about.

I agree - family (especially abusive ones) can be extremely detrimental to your health! I like that saying, "Friends are God's way of apologizing for your family!"

I guess the real fight we all struggle with is identity and reality - how we choose to define and perceive ourselves - who we choose to be versus how others choose to define, perceive, and portray us to others to serve their own purposes whether good or bad.

Thanks for being a Friend, spr, and for choosing to perceive my identity in a positive light. lynn09
