The only person I feel comfortable talking to is my mom. I isolate a lot so I don't have many friends but even if I did I don't think I'd talk about it. There's that pressure for me to be always fine, always'on' and taking care of everyone else.

@java_mom sorry about that. Anyway they don’t have to have gone through what you have, but if they can be sympathetic, that helps. Your Mom sounds supportive. Can you talk to her? Do you have a therapist? Sorry for the barrage of questions. Anyway, you can always write to me- I didn’t go into my past but I can and I do understand!
