Dislikes:
1. I have to really push myself during the day, every day, to keep up with everyone; including going out in crowed, public places when I am perfectly happy, safely nestled at my desk in my office (confronting major agoraphobia issues. Daily)
2. My self esteem is horrible (I cannot look in the mirror or be in photos)
3. Feel ugly on the inside / like a troll on the outside
4. I feel as if I am "too damaged" to make new friends or meet new people
5. Get dizzy, light-headed thinking about being exposed to social situations
6. I am crushed because my father shut me out (due to my mother's lies, manipulations, emotional abuse) and there is nothing I can do to get through to him
7. I am so exhausted all the time ... from worrying
8. I feel as if I am not aging well because I hardly smile anymore
9. I wasted my career with horrible bosses, at horrible firms, because I thought that is what I deserved (and no better)
10. I've isolated so much that I cannot attend any type of group function without having major anxiety (old friends, family, work colleagues, etc)

Likes:
1. I rescused/adopted my beloved (crazy) cat and stuck with him when nobody else would (I was his 4th home). And we went through hell. And now we are pretty happy. As with any cat, we have a quiet understanding - he rules the house
2. When I was hungry and had no food at all, I finally asked a neighbor for help.
3. That I have enough black pieces in my waredrobe so I have something to wear to work every day
4. I am working really, really hard to get a grip on C-PTSD and all that comes with it

5....10 ... I'll get back with you
