Maybe I shouldn't be replying to this because I'm brand new here and don't know you, but I just really wanted to say that I understand wanting to give your friends a break, but these people sound like they care about you SO MUCH! they also sound very worried at the idea of you taking a break. support groups and online friends can be so helpful in hard times, so maybe you should stick around, not talk about it if you don't want to, maybe talk about something else. I think your friends would feel better and you would too just by reading their words. =)
