lungranger77, thank you for posting. Apart from relating I particularly found your first sentence about empathy thought provoking..."Not sure yet if the empathy is helping me or feeding into the low lites too much." It is so easy to slip into what the good folks in AA refer to as "the poor me's".

Hi Gang,
Well Empathy is not quiet the word I would have used either........But we need to,( get down to the heart of the matter). Anger and frustration come to mind.

Thanks for your feedback. Staying objective is certainly the most optimal direction to go. I'm a little challenged in the area of emotional reactivity. For the most part , I'm glad to have joined the Mayo PMR club. The encouragement is awesome.
