Well, maybe I should be caught with a net. Haha. I sure feel like it a lot of time, but somehow I always fly under the radar. At the moment I do feel like I could fall off the edge. It's funny...I have felt this way a couple of others times in my life...but somehow I always manage to pull back from the edge. So I don't know.

Oh, I don't drink alcohol now. I just don't. I love breaking the back of addictions. Right now I am working on breaking the addiction of comfort eating. I think I am winning the battle.

Keep in touch, lady.
Oh, trust me, I understanding your feeling about mental health professionals, because I was the same exact way for so long! Haha, that's why I said they caught me with the net. But you know, I don't want to get all philosophical on you or anything, but there is probably a very good reason why you have always been able to pull through these situations on your own. I know its your unbelievable strength and resiliance but to me, it seems there is something in the background working in your favor, almost other-worldly, as crazy as that sounds.

I admire your courage, and I definitely can see how you have perservered through for so many years, and I agree on the peer bonding of this site. No one knows the road we have to walk on except those who have walked on that same road, even bumpier than ours at times. So yeah, we will be here.

Especially me!! Oh, trust me I plan on keeping in touch. Don't you worry!
