I'm so grateful for all these comments and the opportunity to become acquainted with you all. My computer has been down for some time and using my phone to navigate is proving to be a challenge. I'm not quite sure yet how to respond individually to these comments (pointers, anyone?). Thank you all so much for your time.

Hello my new friends!!!!
I was told by my counselor I have PTSD from a recent 7 year relationship with a narcissist and although I have not yet discussed it with her, I am finding through other research that this problem did not start with him. My codependent characteristics started way back when I was a child growing up with an abusive, alcoholic step-father; a man I loved very much and tried hopelessly to please.
The BEST therapy I have found is by reaching out to help others through similar circumstances. If you've been through physical and emotional abuse, I have been there but I'm learning how to overcome. Let's help each other and become the exact opposite of those people who have hurt us.
Please share with me your thoughts.
