about

I am 48 years old (yes that's old compared to some of you).


I have worked in nursing and/or healthcare management positions for 24 years. Primarily OB, Neonatal, Mental Health, Occupational Health and Geriatrics. In Jan 2008 I started my own business to board horses and do equine/human education. I am also a certified dog trainer.


I've been around the block so to speak and seem to be always helping others. I've been told that the reason people seek me out for advice is that I am approachable and caring. But on the same token even though I consider the person's feelings. I tell it like I see it. I've dealt with people in trouble with the law, dysfunctional families such as those with abuse & marriage problems. Not to mention problems with employees and employers.


I don't ever claim to know it all, and always keep an open mind.


advice

you know how people say that anger towards animals etc is the first sign of psychotic behaviour? i think i can see that in myself.

what do i do?what is the second sign?

It would help if you explained your version of "anger". Most people can get frustrated with their pets, but never actually harm them or have thoughts of harming them. However if you having thoughts of violence, then yes, you do need to get some help. Call a hotline, speak to a counselor, a pastor or any adult that you believe will help you. As far as the second sign, I am not sure anyone could tell you that for sure, because it's most likely different in different people. It is great that you recognize this and are willing to ask about it. Kudos to you!
