i have been diagnosed with complex ptsd by my therapist due to events of abandonment and abuse as a child.
the cult experience of being raised as one of jehovah's witness was a major factor.
i think that the sparlock video and the conti case has brought emotional flashbacks to some of us here, so i wanted to post information that i have found helpful.
marked for later read

From memory, a city in NZ has a population of 25,000+

Here in Brisbane it's a very touchy subject, we have it, but many want it gone. Personally I would prefer to keep it but at a lower level than currently used.
just my 2cents
isn't australian politics fascinating?
having toppled the woman who first toppled him, prime minister rudd now faces the choice of calling an election sooner or later.
it was a similar choice that faced gordon brown in the uk when he replaced tony blair in 2007. gordon brown was remarkably popular at the time, a brief popularity that came out of nowhere and that equally disappeared never to return.
here in aussieland it doesn't matter who one votes for yay still gonna end up with an arshole in power i'm just glad i have no vote here, so not having to make that choice.
