dinah:
it's so interesting because i find you So easy to relate to.
i have very few friends, and over the last year have lost a few of those because of my illness (or at least i guess that's it).
at times i feel alone. i always said i would make it through life alone so i didn't have to depend on anyone and get hurt. slowly i've learned to depend on a few people, but never to the extent that most humans interact.
my husband is even "worse" than I - he definitely has some aspects of asperger's, which i believe you do, too.
i like this fortune teller that comes on our local radio station monday mornings. she cracks me up, but she is uncannily accurate as well. (remember, this is The woodstock).
she recommends opening yourself up to the universe - not worrying about how others react to you, what is happening in life that we can't control. similar to many spiritual "counselors".
i would just be yourself, seek help in a place specific to your illnesses (like here), If that helps, and focus on your family relations. you obviously have good relations with your hubby and child.
i'll think more and write later.
