LOL I thought I did something WRONG!!! LOLOLOL

Sky Alert Sky Alert

My dad worked at a dairy shipping center. He had to tell the same guys the same things each and every night for years!!! The same crates of milk, whatever always were stacked in the same place never changed but they couldn't bother to remember... and wouldn't do it right until he showed them again. And some ppl thought my dad didn't have patience!

~*~Angie~*~

Someone once told me that certain parts of our development are stopped at the time of our traumas. So even though when you look at me, you see a grown up (and I am one in part), sometimes it's best to deal with me as if you were dealing with a child. I don't mean that I don't have the intellect of an adult- but sometimes emotionally I am very young. For some people, there could be mental deficits along with that maybe.

I'm sure that you, of all people, can understand them. You are in a unique position to be able to help people who struggle in some areas. You do know, quite literally, what it is like to have part of you still be a child. Like our little jj once told us all, in the dissociative forum...

</font><blockquote><div id="quote"><font class="small">Quote:</font>
My doctor says inner children are the same for every body buuuttt for DID there is not a as much as a talking and knowing and feeling all like for normal people. It is ok with me to write about it. jj

</div></font></blockquote><font class="post">

Ponder that for me, will you?

*hugs*
Angela

They're not really "authorities", though hon. I think what Angie has is a group of MH consumers who run a business together to to help them gain life skills and confidence. Angie and hubby would be the "authority" in the group, I believe. And they seem to be doing what they're supposed to do just fine.

She could explain it better, but that's my understanding. Hope it helps.

LOL!!!! Sky you're too cute!

Angie, dear, sorry if we hijacked your thread. I just thought it would be helpful for everyone to understand (at least as much as I understand) what you're doing with this group. Hey you know what? I think you should start a thread to post that section from the paper you sent me that says "What We Are About", because what you're doing is really cool.

Aw, it sounds like these people may be out of focus. This happens in the mental health field.

Some seem to be just too overwhelmed to cope well, and others just may not be capable of being as functional as the rest of us.

I hope they feel better soon.Sky Alert Sky Alert

I am sure they do appreciate you. Hang in there.
