I have been doing really well lately due to my doc T and my support group. Its been about 10 months now. Then yesterday at the support group thus woman who I do not even reconoze said in front of everyone. How are you doing the last time I saw you you were really a mess. I have going to the group all this time so everyone else knows I am doing well. I just let the comment go but I felt it was the worse thing to say at a support group because others may not come when they are not doing well and that is when you really need to go.

This is important to consider in a public or semi-public support environment. I attempt to refrain from saying things that may deter others from participating, although I cannot control how every individual will read/hear my words.

Good for you, Shery53!

What she said to you was totally uncalled for.

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