I've just finished reading the whole thread on "frustrations," and kept thinking to myself how much PC has helped me in the time since I've joined. There was a lot of innuendo and allusion to "cliques" in that thread which didn't make any sense to me...Hey! I'm really out of the loop here, obviously!
I came here over a year ago, full of pain, humiliation, visualisations of stabbing myself in the heart with sharp knives which persisted for a long time. I found support here and helpful advice. I'm better now, looking forward to my new life, in a new house, free of the oppressive pain which brought me here. Yes, perhaps I could have achieved this on my own with time, precious time, but PC was my outlet, my place for venting and receiveing feedback and support.
I hope others will share their experiences in this thread.
Love
Patty

I can only agree with everything stated. And I would like to add how PC has taken away intense lonleliness, time and time again.

Crying isn't a sign of weakness. It's a sign of having tried too hard to be strong for too long.

I'm fairly knew also but when the hopeless feelings start I find i'm not alone and soothes me knowing everyone is all out there. When no one else understands and i'm tired of explaining myself its soo good to see alleveryones "FACES" even if I don't write. I wan't here for a few months and I couldn't believe how much i missed everybody. How has PC helped you? How has PC helped you?

I am not sure I find I go to work far to tired from being on here way too late. I need to cut back
