Hi Bjornen, I very much relate to your frustration about being interrupted. It amazes me that most people have very poor listening skills. I get interrupted a lot and do as you do...I just fade out. Then I feel angry and miserably isolated and misunderstood.

I also have dermatillomania. I pick at and peel my cuticles...it looks horrific. I'm surprised that no one has mentioned it to me. And I like my hands; I hate feeling ashamed of them.

It's too early for snow. I give people credit for living in places that get snow. I don't know how I'd cope with it.
