YEAAAAAAAA! This is the positive side to this board! To ask pertinent questions and get REAL answers instead of flack ! I agree with you Karen low self esteem from ANY incident can leave you vulnerable for drug /Alcohol or any type of self abuse. No one has the crystal ball and since people in general are different ........ including there disorders. I don't KNOW if the answer we would like will ever be found. But I do KNOW in searching for it we will meet people who we can identify with us on most traumas of our life /CAH/alcohol abuse /drug use or any other unfortunate curve life throws our way. To be able to converse about it is the first step in healing....... to be able to see how far you have come in the eyes of others is our reward for sparing our bodies the self abuse we have endured. To open your self to ridicule and reject from your abusive friends /family /loved ones because you have chosen a self healing path is the second step in the survival journey. I am so happy I can see positive feedback on the board and feel the sense of help in our communication. We all are indeed blessed in this concept !
