Depression, PTSD, ADD, anxiety

Grew up with a Borderline Personality mother. Unpredictable, enmeshed, abusive, immature, non-nurturing...sick. And phony as hell.

Dad was great but gone all the time. Much later I realized he was an alcohic.

Eh.....I should do an intro post here, so I don't hijack the thread and for proper etiquette. ......
I just don't have the energy to do it right now.

My self destructive stuff now (age 55) is mainly isolating. A lot. Good thing I have a job that I like and do well and that doesn't demand paperwork and stuff I don't do well.
