Chrisy, you're wonderful! Even though you've done your "thing", do you think maybe we could all grab a chocolate, pick a disappointment or trauma, and all come unglued together! I've hung on by a thread for about 10 days now! As I read your story, I realized how very healthy it was for you to just let the emotions flow! I'll just grab another chocolate, some "white out", a box of kleenex, and a little cash (you know, for that something to make me feel better) and go for it!!!
Your honesty is an incredible gift, as are you!
Tons of chocolate and love,
ma
