Like Ophelia I have mixed emotions being here. I think it may be good to talk with others about this. I am a litttle nervous about people being here and reading this that may be here for all the wrong reasons... as peepers. But I haven't found this topic anywhere else.
I was watching LAW & ORDER last night and a psychiatrist described covert incest... boing, famililarity. Maybe it's my nature or maybe it's becuase he died when I was 20, but my father's power over me did not result in sex "addiction" -- I rebelled. I decided I was a lesbian... I have discovered since that I am not.. have been married to a sweet guy for 22 years... but I do notice a lot of little things that may be my set of symptoms...
Here is the moment of my rebvellion... I was coming out of the bathroom wrapped only in a towel. My father looked at me strangely and said, "I'm wondering what you'd do if I pulled off that towel." I replied, "If you did, I would hit you so hard you'd land on your butt." He looked shocked and I think he may have realized what he was covertly doing.
But I still had to play mama to my litttle sister and housewife to my father. And I feel the codepemdemce now. And other things.
Anyway that's me. I don't know quite how to proceed. I guess I'll read through the forums.
