Chicken wing you alrealdy have a leg up on myself, echoes and a lot of others like us. You already know what's wrong and can get help before during and after you raise a child. One of my biggest fears is That my youngest will be like me. He already shows some signs. Although I will say when I am having a bad day he asks me if I am alright or when I am freaking out he tells me to calm down. I hate being like that in front of him already so he does help me calm down some. I want him to be better than me so I tell him to calm down when he is freaking out. I ask him if he likes it when dad does it he says no. Sometimes I get through other times he can b just as hard headed as his dad. But I am glad he is there and I believe we can help each other to be better people. My children are my focus. The give me cause to want to be a stronger man. I want to raise respectable young men so in turn it makes me want to be better so as to set a good example for them. Not always successful but now that I Have identified that there is a problem I can work on being better for them. So I don't see any reason why you couldn't be a successful parent especially since you already know. Good luck either way. I wish You well.
