Me, too, pbutton. I had parents who wanted me and loved me. I have kids and grandchildren. Why in the world do I need this forum and long-term therapy? But I do!!! If you're here, you do too. We belong as much as anyone else and our reasons, whatever they are, are just as valid as anyone else's. I have a great deal of admiration for so many who post here and are true survivors. I learn a lot from everyone and you all are my inspiration.
