That's disheartening. I knew that already but...*sigh* I was trying to pretend that it wasn't true, heh.

I honestly don't think the skills will work for me. I think there is too much damage. I know that sounds really negative (I'm sorry) but the issue I have is that I will do okay for a while, then something will happen to undermine my confidence and it's like kicking my legs right out from under me--I just get totally knocked over. I don't have a lot of offline support, honestly. That's kind of a big factor.
