Prada, do you maybe stop and feel stupid and that your words are silly because you don't feel your needs are as bad or as needy as someone else.

If so, stop that!! I do the same thing...sometimes I don't even start to type, I just sit here and keep to myself. Then when I do post I value my post by the number of replies I get...which I also need to stop doing. Especially since I know that sometimes I don't reply to another poster because I am just too sad myself, or I don't feel I have the right words of support and empathy to share.

I should also stop that!

Your value here is just as important to this forum as anyone else and your words whether in pain or in support are just as important as anyone else and WILL BE HEARD every time.
