There comes a point when you have to withdraw from people who continually disrespect your point of view.

I'm embracing my inner Stopdog these days. Disagreeing with coworkers really doesn't cause death. I've become more bold in my decision-making, too. This is so unlike meek, mousy StressedMess; people hardly recognize me.
Thanks for this!

Working on that! It's a tough battle when compliance has been the strongest part of who I HAVE been.

Compliance is not liking complying too much anymore!! That's causing some old foundation cracking.

Sometimes I really hate people. And I feel bad saying I sometimes hate family members. Sometimes they make things worse by complying with what my OCD says, and yet they make it worse if they don't! Then I make people mad, and things just blow up. Fun, right?

Me too. Standing up for myself still scares the everloving crap outta me, but it feels so good at the same time. I'm learning to love the dichotomy... Fear is not a bad thing all the time...

Eh, I don't know. No matter how awesome your T is it's good to remember who's in charge.

I hear you loud and clear. Which makes me wonder why I just spent the past 30 minutes pacing around my backyard practicing what I want to say to her tomorrow when I see her to pick up the paperwork she has for me. And why I started crying when I practiced asking the question I want to ask her. I hope she can give me a couple minutes to say what I need to say, even though we don't have a session scheduled it's just picking up papers. Suddenly I am irrationally afraid (again) that she's thinking of getting rid of me. Sheesh. So much for my being in charge of my work, right?

Hugs from:

I don't think I have read anything more likely to induce acking.
Outer stopdogs are fierce and prickly.
