Oh, (((((((((((inbloom))))))))))))
Here is a TRUE STORY for you.
Last night, I thought about PMing you just to let you know how much I like reading your posts, and how glad I am that you've joined us here. I don't know why I didn't do it, but now I wish I had! Because all of that is true. I REALLY like your posts and I AM really really glad you've joined us.
When I first came here, sometimes I felt super rejected if I didn't get responses to my posts. I actually posted something about it too, and someone pointed out to me that generally, for every 10 views, there is one reply. I started noticing that that was true, and it made me feel better.
It's not lame to reach out for support here (unless we're ALL lame, and that just CAN'T be true!
). And it's not stupid to worry and to post about it.
I hope you feel better. You are important.
Be gentle with you
