...and what do I get to do with this diagnosis. Nothing. Can't tell anyone as they will walk on egg shells or think I am telling them to get sympathy or using it as an excuse not to get things done. Nope keep it to myself so it really does not matter what I am diagnosed with as long as it does not spill or splash all over other people.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
