This. Absolutely. I often read and thank replies which were not to me because they do 'touch' me and my own struggles past and present. I would never criticise you or anyone else posting on here Mr.Stranger - this is the safe place to reach out to others. Most of us here struggle with some issues in our lives and we understand that pain.
