Thank you for your response. You are right. I will refrain from further internet browsing through this area. I was and still am in shock at the information out there. How much of it, at least to me, is uncomprehensible and humiliating. It only adds to the shame already shrouding this disorder. I am appalled at what I've seen (ie personal web sites). I don't mean to appear critical, perhaps it's my own denial and humiliation that coerces my opinions. I don't know, grin, there's the confusion aura again. You should have a look at some of the sites I have seen, from a cyber psychological aspect, you could have a field day!
In short, it reminds me of the old joke about the guy who goes to the doctor and says 'doctor doctor, it hurts when I do this!' - In a matter of fact tone the doctor says to the man 'Then don't do that'. grin, good words to live by - I will refrain from further research via online material where this is concerned.
Thank you again for your rational opinion on the matter.
Sincerely, Rochelle
