i also cant be away from my parents for too long without feeling lost..i can talk to my dad about everything..but the way this stupid mortgage on the house is..we cant sell it until 2008..i feel like crying all the time but if i do..then i have more anxiety attacks..i used to smoke weed all the time..and i cant even do that anymore without having an attack or feeling very sick..drinking and partying are not my thing anymore..and i've lost tons of my friends due to this..i am taking Saint Johns Wort for the anxiety and it helps..but i just wish my parents would understand i cant be here...i sleep better in my mothers car then i do in my own house..i cant go anywhere without thinking about it because he did it to me everywhere except for the kitchen

My mom would have reacted the same way, she wouldnt let me have any guy stay the night even "until I am married'. She is just being a mom, dont worry about it. She will get over it eventually, i mean you are 8 months pregnant, you take the chance of falling asleep anywhere, lol all I did when I was 8 months pregnant was sleep. Just talk to her and tell her you didnt mean to be disrespectful but you accidentaly fell asleep. She'll be okay. Good luck and congrats on your baby!!!!

You have been traumatized and being in the house rekindles those thoughts. You should try to talk to a professional and they will tell your parents to move you to another property. It's possible to get through this without having long term problems. I know of a girl that went through the same stuff. Good luck

When you say that you see your lover as your brother, it almost sounds like this is something you want. While I don't condone incest, I am curious as to why a obviously intelligent person let this go on for 5 years.

You are in an unenviable state.
The problems you face have no easy short term solution.
a carefull therapy though can help.
counselling certainly will help.
your mind needs rest and the triggers in your house are of no help.
One thing is meditation can certainly help.
Try www.meditationunlimited.net
a programme wud go a long way,i dunno where u are but try meditation.
going away from the house will certainly help
all the best
