Hopefully Mom saw all the replies to her thread showing love and support!

Heartofsix, as we say here—dust yourself off and get back on the NC wagon! Learn from it and put together a “what will I do differently next time” list. It’s important to realize there will be times especially early on in recovery where you will have a weak moment or a bad day sometimes several of them in a row. The lesson to learn is to have a plan in place of what to do to get through days like those. If you wait till they are here, then it is too late to set up a plan.

Lurking is great for reading and gaining perspective but on days you are struggling post in. There are several reasons why you might not get a high response. A lot of times if one or two people that replied nailed the answer then there is not a lot to elaborate on.

Whether you think you can or you think you can't you are probably right. A parrot can repeat what it has learned but the mark of true intelligence is applying what is learned.

Hello EVERYONE!!!!

I have missed you all soooooooo much..I am going to update you all in a separate thread but I wanted to tell Mom....I think I have replied to all your initial posts and threads. I simply have not been here as of late. I have not posted. I have read here and there and I am totally freaked out by the new format and I am so overwhelmed with all the catching up to do and getting to know the newbies and their stories. I have been so darn busy, busy, busy.

Dee,

We have been here a while. I can totally relate to your post and all you said about responding to posts and threads. I could have written every word you said, with few exceptions. I guess that's what happens when you have been here as long as we have and are on here regularly (although I been MIA lately).

Mom,
I should be around a bit more....I used to feel the same, I realized that it was just my own insecurities rearing their ugly head...they always do. I do not think that it is personal at all. I have questioned why some folk respond to others posts and never respond to mine....and I know they are reading. I used to also question why people did not seem to respond.... I finally decided that I can not stress myself out about it. I just had to press on and do what's best for me on this board. We are dealing with so much pain already. And certain people always seemed to get me thru. I was blessed.

Happy to just to read all of your posts.....I will post a catch up thread and I hope to hear from everyone. I missed you all a bunch. That is hearfelt and real. I can not wait to catch up with everyone.....

Besos
