    I agree with NikkiNorris. but you should only take a break, go to a counselor ,or change if you have the WILL to do it.

    whatever and whoever you go to, unless you really want to change inside, you are doing nothing.

    Jak I'm assuming you live in the States, and I don't know much about the system over there.

    I live in the UK, and here when it all gets too much we can go and see a doctor and they can sign us off work for a while to help heal, which allows us to claim benefit; also very importantly they can refer us for counselling.

    You have clearly been through the mill, they should rot in hell for what they have done to you, I am not the least bit surprised you are struggling now - I can't see how anyone would not be after that. Talking to a skilled and empathetic counselor would so help you work through your terrible past. I know, I have been there, done that.

    A lot of people are wary of counselling, it can be very hard to trust someone after going through hell with people; but, get the right one and she can make such a difference to your life.

    I still see my last counsellor as perhaps my best friend for what she helped me do.
