I suppose that goes along with my core very low self-esteem, right? Just a different word for it?? It just seems to be really hounding me lately ~ I can barely get myself to post one or two times per day now. I won't post in the groups that I belong to either, as I feel like..."who cares??".

We've all felt this way before right? Of course! We all know that it sucks. It's a real "blah" time in life. I have stuff on my mind, but I feel like nobody really cares so it's pointless to bring it up. I do know myself well enough to know that I'm very sensitive. If I don't get seemingly sincere responses, they don't mean anything to me really. So, why put myself out there and take that jump?

What may feel overwhelming to me may seem like no biggie to lots of other people and I hate feeling trivialized!

But Shez....we on this forum DO understand. Otherwise, we wouldn't be here. We feel the same way much of the time. Just read through the current threads; there are several who address the EXACT same thing..... You're not alone. You can trust us. We care. We're going through it too so there's times we can't help or reply like we would like to, but we DO care. And if it's bothering you, it's not trivial. It's you, and you have every right to vent and get it out as much as everyone else.

((((Shez)))), I am totally with Mara. I don't know what I would do / what I would have done without you guys. Even the stuff I felt I couldn't write...

Dear Shez, we are here. we care. we can relate. we totally get it.

Venting is important! It's important to get it out...

We are listening.

Hugs, Rose

Shez I have missed your posts in the group we are in. I can so identify with feeling very sensitive and it does not make things any easier. It feels like we have no skin to protect us and we get hurt easily.

I can identify with a lot of things that you write and if you ever what to pm me and really talk and maybe get to know each other I would very much welcome it.

So many of us are struggling and many of us feel alone but we can help and support each other.

I understand why put myself out there and take that jump? Now that is a question and I wonder that myself at times. Would you put yourself out there if someone was offering a hand in trying to be a friend and taking this journey together?

Just something to think about (((((((((((Shez))))))))))))))))
