Dear Abby I understand you are talking to some-one who has been there and has withdrawn for time to heal sometimes not to face it again other times to come back and seek some redress. Here I speak of my own probably unecssary c/s then episodes of my professional and personal life where unexpected and from my perspective unwarranted wounds by those I have trusted have been inflicted. Like you they are part of my passion for change that I feel as positive, preventative for others.
Take care of you and do what you need and seek the help you need for the path you choose Denise Hynd "Never believe that a few caring people can't change the world.
