To say my family was toxic is an understatement. Sometimes just hearing my full name is triggering. For years I've been playing around with the idea of changing it. Most of my friends are nons, and they say it's a silly idea. Recently though, it's become more appealing to me.

Earlier I was ruminating over the ugly past when I imagined what it might be like, for example, to fill out a form or an ...

So I dated this guy who told me I was a "stupid worthless cheap stripper". Funny thing is he was or still is a crater face, nasty, fat ****, with an elephant **** who literally made my whole "dancing" "career" completely worthless and killed my self esteem so bad I could barely work because I hated myself because of the stress he caused.

Just remember, just because they work hard, and have LOTS of cool ...

Hello, good people! I'm new here, so I really hope I'm not violating any board etiquette. I found this place while searching for resources and advice pertaining to my particular issue.

I've been with my Significant Other - I'll call him Allen - for 14 years, on and off. Our relationship has always been tumultuous and complicated, largely because he's bipolar. I won't claim that I'm a day at the beach, but dealing with that ...

Hello guys, this is my first post here. And it's not about survivor's guilt. Just a general guilt for me being in this world.

This will be a long one and possibly a shout into the void. Thank you for reading this whole.

A background:

Hello!
I'm not sure what to do with this. Basically my partner, who i love very much, has issues with anger. She has quite pronounced anxiety problems and this finds form in a lot of anger, and often directed at me. I find anger quite hard to deal with but weirdly have always had relationships with quite angry people. But that's another story! But anyhow so what often happens (altho it has been better recently, ...

I been trying to find help emailing psychiatrists for help...none of them seem to bother answering me back for an appointment. I guess maybe I say too much and they don't want to deal with someone who has a history of being hospitalized for OCD, cutter, had failed past suicide attempts years ago, who has anger issues and is verbally abusive. Kind of hurts when you try to reach out to them and they never ...

We'll call her Dawn. She's in her mid 50's.

Dawn is my wife's twin sister.
She was the second one born.
They have a younger brother.
So the siblings referred to Dawn as the middle child throughout their younger years.
Dawn says my wife was their dad's favorite and the younger brother was mom's favorite and that she has no one.
They went to counseling as a family when they were in HS "for Dawn". ...
