Glad you are doing better Marmaduke. Glad you have reclaimed self esteem.
I am working on it all. From the roots/core on up. I do not know how much self esteem I will ever reclaim. But I know I am working on reclaiming myself. I have hope the progress will continue. Sometimes stuff slams me in the face so I can see and work on it. So now I am working on what has come up. The "opportunity", if you know what I mean.
