During my teenage years I adopted an approach to social relations that could be best classified as a first-rate doormat! I let everyone walk all over me. I didn't have the confidence to tell others when I thought they were wrong or if they had done something that was unfair.

At boarding school I had a very dominant roommate; at home I had a very dominant boyfriend. My first year at college, my closest "friends" were all domineering people. They demanded all of my time and energy but weren't interested in my thoughts and feelings. All they seemed to care about was that I was a "good listener." I kept all my frustrations inside. I wasn't happy with myself, with what I was doing, with my looks, with much of anything! Even though I went to Sunday School, I didn't read the weekly Bible Lesson or study the Bible or Mrs. Eddy's writings. And I wouldn't even call a Christian Science practitioner for help. I just suffered in silence.

During this time I began to suffer from a severe rash on my hands and left arm. And whenever I got agitated or upset, it would get unbearably itchy. But I still didn't do anything about healing.
