I mean I am not obsessed or want to stalk you. I admire you a lot and wish to get to know you more. You see I was abused a lot as a child and think I dissociated my abuse until now. I am twenty eight and your story proves that I am not a mpd woman but definitely have dissociative issues. I dont lose time but I do forget a lot. Do you think I should find help or live my life with regret? I know it takes awhile to receive your answer but I have all the time in the world. I have patience to. I will try to find you on facebook. Will you befriend me or reject me? Good luck in your future.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Dear Carmen Anna,<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m inspired by your answering your own question. You asked &#8220;Do you think I should find help or live my life with regret?&#8221; \u00a0Clearly you believe that it&#8217;s in your best interest to seek help! I once thought I had all the time in the world, too, but believe me, if you are feeling life is draining, than you are not living your life as your best self. Patience is a blessing, but not patience when it comes to what you need to help yourself, time is precious. Forgetfulness at times may simply mean you are trying not to focus on what troubles you. It&#8217;s always best to seek help with a qualified therapist before your emotions get the best of you.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, I&#8217;m on Facebook, as Karen Overhill, and will befriend you! Thank you for asking!<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for your well wishes!<\/p>\n<p>Karen<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comment by Carmen Anna on 20 Oct 2011 at 5:35 pm Dear Karen, I finished reading Switching Time a week ago and can\u2019t stop thinking about you.
