You have MDD and not Bipolar, right? @MoxieDoxie
No, I am CPTSD and Bulimic but seriously depression is all part of it along with the constant SI and self harm rears its ugly head every now and again.

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.
