I caught some of it, not realizing what the show was about. It pissed me off. Working with that population in tha past has unfortunately made me pretty cynical. I try to sympathise, but sometimes I just can't.

I did feel bad for the cutter as far as how her issues were ignored (especially by her father) for her whole life - "Yeah, Tamela was sexually abused for years, but we've moved passed that..." Oh really? Ass.

I have a close friend who became addicted to pain pills & left her husband & kids after cheating on him, neglecting her babies & putting them thousands of dollars into debt. She ruined all of their lives, so I have a really hard time feeling bad for anyone in that situation. I know, it's an addiction, they didn't choose to become addicts initially, but I can't help but get angry.
