    Is it too late to start a university degree? And is there any point?

    ...here), Nora Gedgaudas, Dr. Segura, etc.; but also, psychology oriented individuals such as Martha Stout, Timothy d. Wilson, Aleta Edwards, etc. It seemed like each time I worked to improve one, I would always slingshot backward after a while, and after a long time of this it appears that a...

    ...work with other people on projects, like in a work setting. From the bit that I have read of and about the book, Fear of the Abyss by Aleta Edwards it seems like the book covers what are perfectionist traits well. Notice my ability to focus has been impacted so I'm going to give it more...

    The Highly Sensitive Person by Elaine Aron, PhD.

    I hope it helps. :) I'd forgotten to put the link for the test in to make it a bit easier in case people don't have the book yet: _http://www.hsperson.com/pages/test.htm Yeah, those newsletters are pretty helpful. I was reading about PCS as well and wouldn't be surprised to find out that...

    The Highly Sensitive Person by Elaine Aron, PhD.

    ...not sure how many people will care to try & understand an HSP, especially in a work environment. I recognize several family members in that list, & I score higher than all of them. I wonder how many people have this & PCS as well? (perfection, control, shame - Dr Aleta Edwards Fear of the Abyss)

    Observation must begin from the beginning

    Thanks Beetlemaniac, that speaks to me. That is me completely. It's funny, when someone delivers insight into one's own psyche - almost like saying "oh yes, this is you, have a look" - it has several effects: [list type=decimal] a sense of relief - possibly because there is a force that knows...

    Observation must begin from the beginning

    ...yourself to be aligned with your true self and to release all those past hurts. I'd recommend also checking out Fear of the Abyss by Aleta Edwards. I feel that the 4th way practice is incomplete without an understanding the dynamics that occurred in our family lives -- I haven't read a lot...

    Fear Of The Abyss - Aleta Edwards

    ...very difficult to do. I suspect that what I used to call "guilt" which is a major issue for me, is actually shame as it is defined by Aleta Edwards here. And I also suspect that the PCS type describes me pretty well. I think I'm very, very slow in catching up. I read the Narcissism books but...

    Serving Self by Serving Others

    Fear of the Abyss, by Aleta Edwards, is a really good book that deals with a cluster of traits relating to perfectionism, control, and shame (PCS for short). I see some of those traits manifesting in what you wrote above. Even if suffering only mild forms of that type of personality, I found the...

    Show #45: Predators Among Us - Interview With Dr. Anna Salter

    I watched that "ice man" video too (I had actually seen it a little while back, I remember the D.A. well) & his childhood story is pretty common. Since that was over thirty years ago, similar upbringing tales have just increased, the relentless beatings & religious "discipline", & especially the...

    Show #45: Predators Among Us - Interview With Dr. Anna Salter

    Thanks for the links and the show! :) Anna Salter reminded me somehow of Aleta Edwards, very driven and compassionate. I very much agree with Chu's statement: I wish there were more people like her (and Aleta Edwards) in this world. I hope she will benefit greatly from what Laura was telling...

    Fear Of The Abyss - Aleta Edwards

    SMM, I had many similar experience to what you have expressed in your post. My father left when I was 5 and shortly after that my brother was hit by a car in front of our house and died on the sofa. He left after my youngest sister was born, another similarity. I too tried to be good enough...

    Hating My Mother and Merry Christmas - Two of my *I*s

    Re: How to stop hating my Narcissistic mother Strawman, this post of yours comes across as really quite abrasive. Aragorn's assessment is accurate, in my opinion. The whole post reads like an attack on lilyalic based on your own self-importance and belief in yourself as someone superior...
