What's the point? YOU have friends and are still depressed. I spent over $40,000 and 7 years in therapy trying to change myself into a person who knew the magic secret to friends and love and in the end my "paid friend/emotional prostitute (i.e. therapist) was fed up and gave up on me. It's too much work, trying to pretend to be a person who's likable, Of course I keep trying, but people generally still see the real you behind the fake "behavior". My therapist sure did, and
when she know longer needed the money, that was it. Cecilia
