Wow, thank you so much Carol. To be so openly and warmly greeted is a nice feeling. I really appreciate your invitation to talk here. I have just turned 33 this year and during a recent Army Medical was shocked to hear that my nose had apparently been broken " so many times" and of course I was embarassed beyond belief that my records showed just how many instances my fingers and arms had been dislocated. I suppose the medical was a big slap in my face considering I believed I had long since moved on from my childhood. I have been hiding everything for so long that I never dreamed being confronted with questions re those early injuries. I was obviously taken aback and have now been recommended for further 'consultation'. Considering my postion within the Army is as a Psychologist this is even more humiliating. It's so easy for me when I am counselling others but for me, it's always been me pretending it's all in the 'past'...
