Hi,
I kind of jumped in at trying to be helpful, and when I feel strongly about something I can express it too strongly and be a bit inappropriate. Especially when there is only a little info and I make all kinds of presumptions. So I just wanted to say sorry if I'v offended or annoyed anyone, and promise to be more careful if I leave any comments...

Don't worry! I'm sure you haven't offended anyone and if you did, they will probably understand after reading this. And don't let this worry stop you from posting!

Thanks for the reassurance Bats&Butterflies! Sometimes I feel like I'v really been stupid and I should just shut-up, or disappear, or dematerialise, if only it were possible! And all the while I will be telling everyone else, very loudly, about their rights. LOL

And guess what - I just did it somewhere on this forum again. The problem is, if i see someone hurt I cant help but try make everything better. Especially with psychological pain, because I over-identify.

And all the while I may just be annoying, or making stuff worse. So I think I should stop reading other peoples threads, that way I wont make any dumb or harmful remarks... Can someone advise me on this?
Thanks for this!

Definitely do not stop reading and responding to other threads. Everyone is here for a reason and ever response offers a different perspective. And who knows, maybe your perspective is the one they need.

Isn't it just the worst feeling ever: like you don't deserve to breath, but you can't stop either (people would be hurt etc etc etc)

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
