Hmmm...yeah. I think, because like you, there's the anger thing. I don't think I really thought so much in terms of character regarding the others (depression or positive hypo), but the anger of the dysphorias triggered a ton of issues surrounding my (definitely MI) mother. I'd always vowed to NOT be like her, so when that kicked in, all I could see was my inability to uphold this vow, therefore a personal failing.

Huh. Never really thought about it that way before, but there it is. How much do you charge?
Thanks for this!
