I recently posted a message explaining how I felt (Lonley and Confused) and I recieved the adivce to tell someone I trust how I feel. How do you go about telling someone something like that? How might they react? Would I just be burdening them? Please help. Would love any advice.

I am impressed that you realize your need for help. The next step is to find that person who can trust. I do not know where you live but in some areas there are good RAD therapists. I have one here where I live for my daughter. Do a serach of attachment therepists in your area, call one and see if they have a way to help you. They would be the best way to go. If they do have resources to help, call Children's Home and Aid Society. There therapy is not the best but you might find a therapist who actually understands RAD. CHAS is free in our area for RAD therapy. Some psychologists have private funds to pay for people like yourself who have no way to pay for treatment but want to get better. Ask the psychologist if they understand RAD and how to help you learn to accept love and give it.
If you know a pastor or priest, ask them for someone. They often know who can help and who resources available.
Call someone now. Do not keep living without love any longer. Coming to be able to love and be loved properly now will give you a fulfilled life from now on.

you can email me privately if you wish. I had some RAD and dealt with it. My mom did not want me and had no idea how to give me attention. Now I have an adopted daughter from Russia with RAD.
I would do anything to help her because I never want her to grow up empty like I did. I am married and have 6 children. I learned to love and accept love, YOu can too.
