http://nexusdog.blogspot.com/2007/01/rules-of-survival.html Some time ago, I realised I had rules of survival, so I posted them on my blog. The similarities are there, which makes it more profound for me to see others stating what their rules of survival were. I really think it's something we should see more of, to highlight what we did to survive.

Interesting list. Because it took quarter of a century to face up to my abuse I have a pretty good idea of what I might have been like otherwise, because I pushed on past it and was determined to achieve something professionally. Once I got there, that’s when the cracks began to show because I’d never dealt with it.

Now I realise that like painful bereavements, the time I was attacked is another anniversary to incorporate and accept for what it is, without any job losses around the same time to make me think that redundancy was to blame instead.

I would say that “The Ability to Figure Things Out Quickly” and “Perceptiveness” are exactly the same though – that’s just my opinion.
