Did I?? Bloody hell, I must have missed that....

In fairness, it's about the only thing that I haven't done in the past 10 years! I've not been murdered either..obviously..(please don't be tempting fate with a joke...).

Sometimes, infact most of the time, when I post like this on here, it tends to suggest I am really struggling and this is my only sort of, release if you will. It gives me something to focus on and stops me finding other, more self destructive releases...so yeah, some people will moan and groan about it, most don't. I know that most of you guys are actually the best. And Ophic, today you have made me properly smile! So thanks...

The idea of getting away sounds good. I am tempted to book some time off work and go a tour of the lakes or something, just me and my ipod.
It worked for me. I knew plenty of people where I went so when I could be alone all day if I wanted, then go out with good company every evening.

Anyone got the relevant Monty Python link to save posting it all again?

Lakes sound a great idea hun, and you could defo do with a holiday. You should do it and spend some time away from the things that are getting to you right now.

You know I am always here for you and as per norm you can call, text any time of the day/night and I will be there. You are so much like me when I was your age but you have been through a little bit more, but you are an amazing person.

I feel that stuff I have experienced has made me the person I am. A few years (cough) on from you and I am alot stronger than I used to be, and you will come thru it all and be strong too, just can't see it yet.

Lean on your friends and you will get there hun. You are an amazing bird and better than those that are hurting you.

love ya chick xx

WOW!

As had been said by others, sh!t happens even in the most ordered existence.

When it reaches a big low find your best friends and spend some quality time relaxing and having fun.

And if you have people who are giving you grief, back away from them.
