It would be a good idea if you are getting away from your family to get into therapy & also get a psychiatrist who can actually Diagnose you appropriately. There may be more going on with you than JUST how you were treated by your parents.

It was only a few months ago when I was reading on Asperger's because several of my previous T's had suggested that the problems that I was having with my H could have been based on his being on the Autistic Spectrum.......sure enough....it explained ALL the troubles that I couldn't deal with in the bad marriage of 33 years before I finally left.

There can be underlying things that are wrong that without a diagnosis it's impossible to know what & how to work on one's problems.

Sorry....I don't skype.....just do PC posts & PM's

I wish you the best in sorting out your life.....parents do play a huge roll because they either teach us the skills necessary to handle distressful situation & our emotions or they don't & then we use what ever seems to work at the time & that is what ends up programming our mind's neuropathways.,,,,,,but those neuropathways can be reprogrammed once we learn needed skills & practice them over & over & over & over again. It takes a lot of work & a good T to hold you accountable for the work...but it is possible.

The mind can reprogram itself we see it with stroke victims & Traumatic Brain injuries (TBI's) all the time....so it is possible.
