Ok.
If I were Suzanne, the LAST place I would want to open up and try to figure things out is here. So - how about someone who really cares for her open up a room in chat or maybe an e mail list where only the people she feels comfortable talking to can address her, and maybe she would feel comfortable being more open and less hostile and defensive that way.

When you were in that space, why did you stay here?

A determination to make a niche here where I knew I belonged. A refusal to be bullied out. Some people who mattered to me and were willing to try to reach me. And it's ok to beat the shit out of people you hate here.

no recovery buddies in her town ... to bad.
Gee-Zeus will save her if she just beleives.
Pat Robertson says so ... he is losing business with Israel now I hear.
A man of God who is also a business man.
Praise da lawrd.
Intellectual recovery is the very hardests and ugly way to do it.
But it works if you work it.
One of these days she will stop living in fear and do the very hard painfull work of living in love.

On Thu, 12 Jan 2006 06:34:58 -0800, "Alan B. Mac Farlane" May be - do you believe everyone *wants to recover (or be better, nicer, whatever)? She sounds happy with being this way. I think sometimes it's safer not to change, especially when you have the tough thing down, because changing from tough implies changing to weak.
It was easiest for me. I couldn't do the therapist or group thing.
And it's been a trip, it really has. ~*~ I am incredibly silly, so I emphasize you. My tropical liaison won't improve before I say it ~*~

to be more and more me. i've always been me, but with numb, inert places all over. metaphorically, my recovery has been an environmental reclamation process. when i'm done, i'll be completely alive.
at one time i used the pinocchio analogy a lot. for some reason that one really rooted in me. the first couple of times i watched spielberg's "AI" and heard that kid pray to the blue fairy to please make him into a real boy, i completely went to pieces. it still makes me quiver in the chest to write about it.
i think it's a bit different in that it includes the idea that we were once quite ill and are now on the mend. that makes it a special subset of the overall life journey, which i see as being more about going from potential to realization.

Half of me agrees with you here ....
All of me agrees with you here...
And the other half of me says, "Who do you think you're kidding?!" Nah, I know - I really did *not get on with organised groups, either.
But then, look who was organising them.
Uh-huh.
