> Do folks only come here when they feel bad? Do most of them 'graduate' and split? I find myself only tuning in when I get really down. It helps me think that I'm moving forward. Working on my problem. But, when my mood lifts, I'm off being a person. It kind of makes me feel unloyal.

>I'm afraid I must be classified as a perpetual student, then. No, that's not true... when things are going better than usual, I also try to use this place to sound off. The lists of 10 Good Things can come in handy. And it's also an unpleasant surprise when you've had a few good days (and posted as such), only to have them come crashing down. As can happen when life has its way with us. Ups and downs, twists and turns.
I happen to be on an upwards spiral at the moment. Last week things seemed quite dire. At times like that I'm not always able to squeak out an entire list of 10, so I do what I can.
But I try to use this board in good times and bad, and to help others who seem to need it, because they do the same for me. It's a very forgiving board.
CSp.s. How are you doing, then?
