If you really want to, it's possible to change, isn't it?
I feel, looking back over the last ten years, I've been on the brink of a breakdown for much of them I've had physical and emotional trauma manifesting itself in awful PND, job losses (I have never been sacked but it has gently been suggested to me I spend more time with my family on 3 occasions ) serious illness, bereavement, I could go on.
I do have three beautiful children and I am healthy - physically - and in many ways I have so, so much.
But I do feel so sad and guilty and troubled. Sad that my behaviour took my family to the brink and back, sad that I seem to be unable to work and have children, sad that so many stupid anxieties have meant we can't live life to the full.
So - my AIBU - is it possible to change? Can you 'cure' yourself by deciding 'I am NOT going to be that person any more.' Or does it always need professional input?
