Still no sign of aloneandsad and it has been two weeks now since her last post. Got a nagging feeling that we all should pray...<BR>I am truly worried because I know how despondant a person can get when they're at the point she is.

I agree, cd. There are a few out there I am concerned about because we haven't heard for a while.<P>Praying for aloneandsad...<P>Catnip =^^=

Hopefully she is just going through what I did. I was gone for a couple of months. Just got really depressed and couldn't write. But I came back. I will pray for her, I hope all is well. <P>babstr.

Babstr:<P>It is disconcerting when someone on this site leaves when you know they are going through a difficult time. They usually leave when they need it the most, like you did. Lord, I was worried about YOU. It was if you had dropped off the face of the earth, and I for one was relieved when you returned. We had to really coax you, Babstr, but thankfully, you finally acquiesced...probably so we would shut the hell up. hahahaha<P>With aloneandsad not checking in, nor Heavenly and Lynton and others, in addition to worrying about them, I miss their posts. I only like seeing people leave when they are well into their healing and are moving on because they need to leave the past behind. <P>Everyone here will have to leave sometime. I sometimes think I have stayed too long but I get so much from this site and it gives me a great deal of comfort. I am compelled to be here for newbies and others going through tough times because so many gave so much to me when I came here two years ago. Jenny was my particular angel and reached out to me in the beginning.<P>We all come and go from time to time, and that's fine. But when we know someone has been in difficulty is when we try to search them out for our own peace of mind, I guess.<P>Love,<P>Catnip =^^=

YEAH!!!<P> Debi<P>------------------<BR>Imagine....

Catnip,<BR>In regards to you "staying too long on this forum..." You should realize, if you don't already, that you give way more to this forum than you could ever possibly take. I think you would be doing everybody here, including those who have not yet found their way here, a tremendous disservice by leaving. you can't possibly imagine how I have been uplifted by your replies, and I know the others feel the same way.<BR>So really I guess you have no choice but to stick around.<BR>How is that for a guilt trip? Not only should I have been born Jewish (or Catholic), i should have been a Jewish mother.<BR>With love, cd

I'm glad if what I say can help someone get through this nightmare although I realize I have an edge and can be 'rigid' and tough. Perhaps 'anger management' is in order. Hahaha<P>Thank you for saying such nice things. You make me feel needed. We all need to be needed, don't we?<P>Catnip =^^=
