Who am I??? What's it all about Alfie?????? This is THE question, isn't it? Growing up in a very unpredictable envionment, never knowing when "the other shoe" was gonna come outa nowhere and kick me in the guts.... getting blamed and punished for things I hadn't done..... having absolutely no feeling of control over anything by controlling my own behavior, it was like trying to figure out who i was in a hurricane...... good luck.

Hillbunnyb,
It sounds like we grew up in the same house. Congratulations on your escape. I know it's not easy.

I know that for me, self knowledge comes when it is reflected back to me from others.
