Lately I've been feeling a little guilty that I haven't had the words or the mindset to respond to some other posts that I have seen of the site.

Between being where I've been mentally, thinking I may need a med adjustment, worrying about the start of my Hep C treatments and waiting for the online pharmacy to call about up about the hep C medications; my mind is just been in a fog.

I appreciate the support and love that I have received since becoming a member of this group, just feeling a bit Guilty that I have not been able to return as much support as I have received.

No worries, wolf. We all have periods where we need a little support and other periods where we can give support; it's part of the cyclical nature of this illness. Don't feel guilty; you're a valued member here.

That is how this place keeps going, you give when you can, and take when you need. We all go through that at times. It's ok.

Your music threads, believe it or not are helping . Btw.. how is it you know a lot of my favorite bands... and now BANGLES too!! I am enjoying those threads a lot... see.

No worries. Respond when you can and feel up to it and just give hugs or thanks when you can't. That's what I try to do. Sometimes I am extremely talkitive and sometimes I just read.

Plus even if you're not responding now, you'll come out of the fog and suddenly be responding to everyone and wondering "uh oh, now am I annoying them by saying to much??" I go through that, too.

Tell me more about this.. so it isn't true? hehe I do this all the time. I am way to talkative and wordy. You are good DH, I have never felt that way about anyone here ever. Think we made it up!

No worries Wolf, most of us find this place during really rough times, and nobody expects you to give what you don't have The tide will turn and then you'll be posting left right and centre, and that will be ok too

I think we all just worry about the same things. Probably because we found a place where we actually want to fit in, so we don't want to seem like the weird one (which is how we felt all our lives.)

And, Anika, I never have felt you are talking too much, either! Or anyone else. I think we all have our own styles and it brings life to this place.

I never think I'm talking too much per se'.... but I do wonder if I sound like a 'know it all' answering every post that pops up and no, I don't think you guys talk too much either, I like it when my sisters get chatty

[tribalwolf]

I also don't want to get thought of as a taker (someone who always needs and never gives back). I want to give back.

You are giving tho, I seen you post to others. You gotta see it too! No one is keeping track. We all have to post what we can, when we can.

Sometimes I ask for support, other times I give support, and sometimes I come here and talk about light topics because that is what I need at that time. Usually when I am posting only light topics, that is when I cannot get into the darker stuff. For whatever reason, and usually it is because I am trying to calm my own stresses I will avoid stuff that is too serious. We all do what we do here in different ways and that's perfectly ok. It's really pretty chill around here.

Your doing plenty fine wolf, no need to worry. Your a valued member of our clan and we will support you as much as we can and you just do as much as you can. Thats all there is to it. noone expects anything from people on here.

You are not a taker... just worrying about this shows you know a lot about giving.

But YOU are important too.
