But please do keep on posting - it's not just screaming in your helmet, there are people reading the posts and I really believe that sharing can help.
So everyone says - I like talking but I don't really share much in the way of personal stuff, especially on-line so I don't really feel the "sharing can help" thing from my own experience - maybe if I'd have done it more I'd see the same thing. Perhaps. Sometimes I don't want a converstion about how I feel - I'd much rather find something else to talk about. I think. But I also think that not putting things into words is part of the problem.

Good luck with the DIY! What are you doing?
Actually that went okay today - the special gun and fixing bolts I ordered came today (the day after I ordered them) which surprised me and I manged to put a couple of bathroom cabinets up - 16kg each when empty, on some partition walls (plasterboard). First attempt 2 days ago I overtightened some screw-in type fixings - they gouged holes in the wall and came loose so I had to patch those up first thing and try again - most DIY jobs I think should take 2 hours end up taking 2 days - and it's not that I'm not good at it - I think things through. Anyway all done now and I just want to bolt lots of things to walls now.

Also managed to write a 2nd verse to an oddly structured song I'm working on (and half of the 3rd verse) and I'm pleased when that happens as you just never know when the words and ideas are going to come together.
