Kam,
Trust me when I say that I had SUCH a hard time when I first got to this forum. It was awful. I sent a post that everyone was offended by. There was discussion on this board as well as the administration board about it. It was horrible. I thought these people would shun me forever.
That was only about a month or so ago. Just to show you that the people here are so genuine and so forgiving, not to mention caring.
So, I am glad that you decided to stick it out. You will find real strength here.
As far as another shrink goes, I can't do it all again. I put so much into going to see a shrink in the first place. My husband is totally disgusted with the fact that he is "paying good money" for me to talk to someone. It was so hard to talk about what I did with this guy, I just couldn't put myself through that again. Yikes!!
Thank you very much for your concern, though. I am trying this online guy in hopes to get my life together. If it doesn't work, well...

> Miller,
> I too offended many people on my first post very recently. And may I add rightfully so, when you had 17 years of not being able to say whats on your mind, then realize you can, well for me anyway sometimes I get a little too bold and come off too strong. Even though I am just a little sweetie pie! hehehe . I am glad I stayed here as I have received a lot of helpful information as well as support. I only hope I can help someone else as well. I do wish you the best with the on line shrink!! What ever works for you dahling!! Take it easy and try to let out as much as you can when ever you can, but don't push yourself!!Best wishes,
Kam

Kam,
You don't realize that you have already helped people? OK, so maybe I can't talk about my relationship with the bad man right now, BUT, I now know that when I am ready, you are ready to help me. You told me that. I believe you were sincere. So, yes, it is a huge help to me.
I am also sure there are others out there that are in my position. They are too afraid to release, but are comforted by knowing you are waiting.
Don't under-estimate yourself. Your enthusiasm for wanting to help people is comforting to the core.
So, if nobody has thanked you, I will. I do appreciate the help. I need some comfort. I will also thank you in advance, because I am sure you and I will be having conversations regarding all of this some time in the future.

> I thank you Miller for the kind words, and I hope for your sake you find the best therapy there is. And yes, I am ALWAYS ready to listen, I may not have the best memory, due to the meds, but I listen well and sometimes put my 2 cents in if I feel it will help.!!
Thanks again,
and I wish only the best for you!!!Kam
