Title: At a loss
Post by: Laura Emily on October 31, 2012, 10:34:44 PM
Earlier in the day I put up my account for deletion, fortunately it wasn't. It wasn't really a rash decision, but maybe one of desperation. It came to my attention that some of the mods were concerned about me. As much as I wish I never existed from time to time, I don't believe in suicide. So unfortunately I'm stuck here living for now. Since I'm not going anywhere, I've been advised that I could help people with my success, and even though I don't feel successful, I know I've at least managed to stay alive, despite my desires. I'm really not sure how I can help anyone, when I feel unable to even help myself. But as long as I'm stuck living, I couldn't imagine a better on-line community to be a member of. It's nice to know I guess, that anyone on Susan's would take the time to feel concern for me, so thanks for that. I don't know what I'm doing, but if I can help anyone on here, that would be a good thing.

You can help in a couple of ways, Sis.

One. Just tell your story.  People will relate to it and say if she can, I can.

And Two.  By just being here.  You are loved by this huge family, and you would be missed if you were gone.

BTW.  Nice new Avatar.

I am glad you chose to stay. Although, I don't know anything about you. Would you mind telling some more about yourself?

Hi. Glad you decided to stay, the more of us there are, the more of us there are, which will make perfect sense if you have an Irish family. :laugh:

Hope you haven't been affected by the cyclone.

Karen.

Share your experiences, for a lot of people just starting out your experiences will really help them out.

Been where you're at not so very long ago. Same thing. In essence, same reasons. Fortunately, had the same result. Hence, still here!!

Take care Laura
