No, you aren't dictating me, you're giving suggestions based on personal experiences. However, you are not the first one to try to in a sense, help me. I've had some others try, although all of them (exception of you) had very little understanding. I can however see where it could seem somewhat dictating, however, these pixels on a computer screen don't dictate me, so that's fine. I guess I went about the long, extravagant way of saying, you're not dictating, just giving experience and wanting to help change me to indirectly help you, a sort of 2 for 1 deal.

However, the idea of letting the power, pain, violence, and to an extent the numbness that I have all go away I'm not sure I'm willing to do. Feeling more I am wanting part of the time but also keeping all the power and everything else. I guess it's possible to keep it while feeling everything.

Well, I'm waiting for the psychiatrists or psychologist to phone me and tell me when to come in and do the personality tests, so after doing them, then after meeting with the psychiatrists once more, I'm assuming they'll give some sort of result or way to go. Although, I'll still be seeing my therapist but she isn't too good at all with getting me to understand the emotions/feelings, as really, no progress has been made.
Short response for now.......please read a posting I put on this personality forum a while ago......its called "Let me howl"......it is a little story about my struggle.......I think you will like it.

I didn't want to give up the rage either........bit like my obsession with cocaine. Sometimes I miss it like the best friend I never had......its predictibility, safety and sweet nostalgia. I often find myself missing what I once was.........but a choice is a choice and when you are ready to make it, you will......for better or for worse. I think your intelligence will win.

Everything happens for a reason........beyond our powers of understanding.
