My search for approval has lead to the loss of my own identity in the process. I have difficulty accepting personal criticism...and become angry when criticized. I have an addictive personality and am driven to extremes.
At NHY...There is one girl ... I can see, and feel, that she has a lot on her mind. Don’t get me wrong, other girls here have a lot on them too, but ... she just has so much. I can’t say her name, but I am going to call her "Sammy".
