Dear DeepSoul:

Attempting to look for the origin of your struggle I go back to what you shared here: “My mum has often told me even as a child I wouldn’t tell anyone there was a problem until I literally couldn’t take it anymore”-

Does she believe, do you think, that you were born that way, not inclined to tell her there is a problem until you burst (the verb you used)?

I wonder how often she told you this (you wrote she told you this often), and in what circumstances and when she said “as a child”, what ages was she referring to.
