Hi, welcome to the forum :)

Hi 71, I'd like to also welcome you to the forum. I read your stressor list and though different stressors then mine, somewhat similar and I certainly can identify with its extensiveness. Also with the dilemma and obstacle of needing to be so strong, but in so doing having it betray.

Again, Hi and Welcome to the forum and I'm hoping you find much support, inspiration, some friends and ideas upon the forum.

Hi and welcome to the forum. This is a real supportive community. Please read the forum rules to help you to understand how it all works. I am sad about what you went through. Feel free to talk about it and know that you are not alone.

Thank you all. Being as sensitive as I am to being perfect I read the above statement about reading the rules as a direct "attack" of sorts that I had broken a rule. I spent a long time reading through my posts and the rules trying to figure out my mistake. I avoided this forum for quite awhile. As I read through it again now I realize it was just my messed up perception. I do this often...take things to heart and interpret them personally. Anyway I'm goIng to try to come back here regularly. You all have so much support to offer. I only hope at some point I am in a place to offer the same to others on this forum as well!

Oh! And please don't let the fact that my perception of a post was messed up stop anyone from replying to me. I understand its me and its good for me to be challenged in this way. I'll get through it! It's what I do... Guessing its what we all do!

I'm glad you came back to it. It can be very helpful to get out what you are feeling. I know it's been a very healing place for me. While I've only been here a month this past 18th, I'm making great strides in my healing, and I have this place and the people here to thank for that.

Very glad you came back 71! :)

Thank you Abstract and safenow. I am benefitting from the support already!

Welcome back :) I often take breaks too when I feel I need to. It certainly is a great place for support and healing, but sometimes I need to do it alone.

I do this all the time, with great regularity :) Don't worry, please. The Forum is a very friendly and welcoming place and I think in the long run you will be glad you came back.
