Angela, I know EXACTLY how you feel. It's part of what landed me in partial. I thought I'd try to carve something out of my stomach, though, as that's where I visualize the pain coming from and I wanted it to go away so bad.

Hang in there, girl. I'm glad you didn't give in. I'm trying to do the same. I'd say maybe we should make a promise to each other to stay safe, but I'm not sure I could keep it. :\

As a friend of mine always says -- one day at a time -- no guilt -- and move on.
