A recent conversation with my T:
Me: That young woman who just left your office has DID.
T: I can't actually answer that because of HIPPA laws.
Me: I wasn't asking.
T: Tell me again why you didn't become a therapist or psychiatrist?
Anywho, yes, I'm pretty good at picking them out. While reading people accurately became a necessary survival skill early on, I improved those skills as a professional poker player for twenty-four years. In fact, my book on poker received much critical acclaim for my section on reading people and was considered groundbreaking. Then there's the old adage, 'If you want to know others, know thyself'. I've spent a great deal of time trying to figure myself out and in doing so, others have become more transparent.
Same question please.
