Thanks, Morgan. ok, so i'm not done...

To add to what you said about parenting:

I did 'splitting' when i was a child-I looked up to my mom like she was practically an angel..my father was so overtly abusive and scary, i needed to believe i had one safe parent...The relatives, the neighbors...all said (and still say) what a good parent-turns out-she was much, much worse than abusive father as a narcissist bordering on antisocial. My T said he believes she didn't have the ability to form an attachment with all her children...and he is correct. From afar, anyone would guess she is a 'nice' person. She is incapable of emotional connection, intimacy...it doesn't have to be physical or overt abuse. And i feel nothing but pity for her, as she doesn't even know how destructive of a person she is.

My siblings had total mental breakdowns in adulthood-on both occasions, it was after briefly staying with her-when they saw how she 'really is'. My symptomology changed when i started to see it as well...I am just starting to recover as i came very close to a breakdown as well. And none of us saw this until we were in our 30s. Although my siblings don't connect this as much, it is clear. Am i to believe my siblings were born with the biological tendency for prison, hard drugs, etc, as they have been in jail multiple times. It's almost as if my mother psychologically killed them-i don't even know them anymore.

I grew up with mental illness all around me-psychologica/biological-everything-schitzophrenia, anxiety, depression, bipolar, PDs. After teaching myself psychology, everything i learned matches the wide range of my own experiences, and you must know, Morgan, after taking psyche classes-you start to see it all around you.

It seems that many psychiatrists use psychology less than car salesmen. Psychology was integrated into most of my business and a variety of other classes. The 25-year-old car salesman i know said they can size someone up within 5 minutes-and predict with considerable accuracy whether or not they are going to buy the car. Why is it that so many psychiatrists ignore psychology? Go figure.
