Carrie,

SI is usually too much for most people to understand and deal with. You would probably be better to stick with talking about that here and at your support group. With people like co-workers, maybe it would be better to let them open up first and when you have a feel for the kinds of things they talk about, then share things that are similar. Sometimes it seems like talking about problems is what makes people close. I remember hearing people talk to each other about their problems (boyfriends, parents, what to wear, etc.) and wishing that I had some similar problems so that they would talk to me too. That was when I was a teenager.

Humor is great! Isn't it nice when you find people who appreciate your sense of humor. Most people don't get mine either.
