I haven't been treated yet, tbh I'm a bit scared what will happen. I know I'm not right, my parents fought a lot (physically and verbally) when I was very young, and split up aged 9 or 10 (can't remember much tbh - or just subconsciously blocking it out for my own protection, more likely)

But I am glad in a way I have had many years to think things through myself my way, especially with an adult head on my shoulders - if I find things scary now, I would hate to think what it must be like for poor children being told what is best for them....
