Yes being a complete person is the big part of it. For me, something that is sort of new, as you can see from my split personality post over on MW's thread. And it is something that is still kinda fragile. I also tend to get a little down when I realize what I have gone through within me to get here.
You know, I want to put it all in a book, but I have to wait for people to die before I could. I feel like I should be the one in crisis somedays, but you are right Mach, I'm here, and I've been there because I have always found the strength to do the carrying. No I have to carry me first and that is not something I am used to. Feeling better already though.
