Only recently since all this has happened, I have started turning back to cooked foods and starches and stuff. It's like a reflex. I think I'm trying to suppress something but I'm not sure which of the millions of feelings it is.
One thing, which I've mentioned in another post is confusion about my sexuality. But I don't think that could account for everything...I mean theres other stuff going on. But is it possible that this is the basis??? I don't know......
The issues with my mum (and dad) seem to affect me the most out of everything. I mean, I sucked myself back into depression just thinking about it. Maybe I'm thinking too much about it.... But it's so hard not to because I live with my mum and she's really emotionally manipulative and I've now grown a sensitivity to any sorts of emotional manipulation. Which accounts for at least some of the relationship problems.
But also I was thinking the sexuality could account for quite a lot. Not feeling secure with myself, constantly hiding something, etc etc.....
p.s. wow thanks for replying Steve! I really really admire you.
