    Accepting abuse can become a habit. Standing up for yourself, saying No More, can become a habit too. Good for you, Tammy! :hugs:hugsYou get two hugs. One for the hurts of the past. One for courage for the future!

    Need a hug, take a hug.

    Labels can be limiting or liberating, depending on how you view them and what you decide to do with them. I was 44 when I (finally!) got a diagnosis of bipolar. I don't call it a disorder, by the way. I've never been so relieved in my life, although I broke down in tears at the time. I'd known...

    Major hugs to you, @DellaMyDarling ! I have a grandson like this. He has been in state custody virtually all his life; all his siblings have grown up in foster care except two (there are six altogether), whom my DH and I are raising. This one of whom I speak has these rage issues like what you...
