Question:

Welcome k, thank you for writing. No, you are not alone nor crazy, but I know exactly what you mean as when I first found this group, at the direction of my therapist, I too thought I was all alone and crazy. And it took me awhile to find the courage to post. I’ve been here a few years now and believe me, it’s gets easier to communicate. It’s just a matter of getting started. There are many nice people here who will listen to anything you have to say and try to help, offer words of encouragement, or ideas that might have helped some of us through the same thoughts/feelings you might be having. Sometimes, depending on what everyone here is going through at the time, the posting is more prolific, and other times I think there are many ‘lurkers’ and not too many posters. Usually that means many here are going through ‘hard times’ and either don’t know what to write, or haven’t been able to bring themselves to ’say’ anything yet. I know with myself, sometimes it still takes me awhile to get out what’s wrong. Please write what ever you can or want to when ever you are able. best, stargazer

Although there are stressfull decisions to make I try to go beyond them to the "Big picture" and not take the set backs so seriously. Even if I loose site of the big picture for days at a time. It’s tireing to bring myself back to reality.
