Can we all post what we think might be the beginning of our mental illness?

I posted some of my history...and you post, instead of how you are right now, how you got here?

I think that might be helpful?

Even if all you need is tea and sympathy...my mother said, as I was cutting my wrists in the bathroom...all Katherine wants is attention, as if attention was something to eschew...we ALL need attention at some time.

And I want this forum to give us what we need...ATTENTION

His/Herstory what brung you here?

Here is my breakdown...and I do mean BREAKDOWN

It took years..

I was supposed to be the boy of the family, and I disappointed by being born a girl..my first mistake

I wet the bed till I was sent to reform school at age 13, but long before that, my sister and cousins regaled in torturing me as a three or four year old...and as my mother said..."that's enough" ...as if all they had done before was just right.

I was raped when I was 11 years old...and told by my mother to wash that filth off of my body..I had no idea at that age what boys, much less what men were about..I was 11 and went to Catholic school...but I did love me some beer..I used to sit beside a chair my dad sat in, and as he put his beer down, I'd take a sip..I was about 3.

There is much, much more background...just like everyone here...I have been diagnosed with every sort of psychological disorder there is..

Why give a shit? I am who I am..I cannot change what brought me to this point...

Thank goodness a fellow Bernie supporter told me how to cutoff the Hillary group

The latest threads now look like DU used to look during the Clinton Obama debates...Why the Clinton folks hate Bernie worse than Obama is beyond me, except it is her 'last chance'?

I do hope this stands...and a certain fellow poster that seems to lock my threads does not shown up?

End of life may be better for families than sudden death

End of life people know they are dying, as scary as that is, but they spend their last days caring about their loved ones left behind.

And planning for their death. In many cases sudden death leaves those left behind without a clue, and sometimes without finances to have a funeral or a cremation.

I hail these folks, and anyone who plans their own death.

I was not dying, but I thought I was...This is how I placated my fear

I thought how ants and bees easily give their lives for their nest mates

because of the genetics...and that it is genes that matter not the body.

I thought about how I was the result of every ancestor who did not die before they gave birth, for millennia...how lucky was I to even exist? And my genes will live on, through my son, my parents, their brothers, sisters and all their children.

That somehow gave me peace.

We do live on..in our genes.
