Yes , I agree this can potentially be very damaging. Not to hijack Myrto's thread but to discuss this. I got pushed very close to the edge by the damaging T and if I'd had a further damaging experience I fear I might have very well have gone over it. Fortunately I did get the help I needed and good understanding and aftercare. But I was aware in my original post that that has not been everyone's experience ( and the aftermaths we see here ). It is not a trivial matter.
