My mom knew her impulses were wrong, but she still did them because she couldn't prevent herself from doing it. While they weren't sexual, they did have to deal with money, stealing personal identification, credit cards and bank accounts, of which it took many years for my credit score -as well as my sisters' - to get…

This entire thing confuses me and makes me feel shitty. If the woman does in fact have a disorder (my first thought when reading was that she likely had BPD, having personal experience with it in my family), then once again news outlets only focus on the horrific outcome and don't look into WHY this sort of thing…

I, too, live in Portland.

Not everyone can be a food critic, but the majority of…
