I wasn't objecting to her post on PB.. I was reffering to her saying that other people cannot affect our feelings. I still dispute that. Pople affcet my feelings on a daily, maybe hourly, basis.
But maybe that is because I am a weak person.
Oh, and I wasn't aiming the "ugly etc" bit at MamaB, it was just an example of what someone could say to affect my feelings.
I think I would be a very cold hard person if other people didn't affect my feelings in any way at all.. The mood of my husband affects me, the words of my friends affect me, the posts people send me affect me. I cannot believe I am the only person in the world that has feelings about the way I am treated by others.
Maybe I can CHOOSE to no longer be depressed. Maybe I can CHOOSE to no longer be suicidal. Maybe I can CHOOSE to no longer be frightened by real life people.
But if I could, don't you think I would have done this a long long time ago??
