      From 7janedoe August 9

      hey sololena thank you for clarifying the therapy thing i have been in and around therapist for a long time and what you describe is correct - my reply tended to be rather black and white and i missed explaining the gray which is in the poem where i mention about more questions to my mind more puzzles to solve - yes they help you identify the issue but if you ask a therapist what to do they will not solve such a question - usually you will questioned back in a round about way to find your own solutions and grow by the therapist being a guide - they dont hold the answers for you but guide you to find the strength and knowledge to make and choice the decisions which are best for each individual - the poem is for a cpl of pdocs i know whom know i usnderstand the process but it took 8 yrs for me to realize they were giving me the skills to answer my own questions and build my self esteem and internal being hugs jd :-)

      After I got away from my Abuser, I found a really great Shrink who helped me sort out alot and realize i wasn't crazy. He helped me to understand that my Abuser exploited the weaknesses and flaws I had from a lousy childhood and lousy parents.
