Yes, I am also Jassa, and I apologise to anyone who is hurt by that. I created Jassa on advice to avoid someone who was giving me unwanted attention on here, and had to post to make her a regular. it worked and the stalker left and I kept Jassa around in case he came back. Which I believe he now has. Jassa did not form any close bonds with anyone. I'm always Coogee, and my reply in Twinkles post remains extant. That is my experience. It's sad we have to take up alternate persona's sometimes, it's sad I did, but it was safer for me if I wanted to stay here and help myself and others. This person had my full details, and I was concerned. I know some good people who have alternate profiles here for good intentions, and I know those who are banned who do it for other reasons. I'll leave it at that, and just say I'm sincerely sorry for deceiving you all. God Bless and stay sober. It really does get better.

" *hugs* ...I understand. I have 2 "personalities" because I am ashamed of my alcoholism. The "other" one stays far away from here. I hope you don't have to hide again. "

" I fully understand your reasoning, since I've seen some abuse on this forum. Don't let anyone drive you away from this place - some people do not have good intentions, but that's not the case with you Coogee.

Thanks for all your advice and support. "

" There is not a person on this forum who would not understand completely why you did it Coogee. I probably understand more than most and you had a VERY GOOD REASON for doing it. You were being stalked for God's sakes.

You, my sweet friend have helped countless people not only on the alcoholism forum, but the cancer forum as well and I for one would NOT be where I am today if it weren't for you. For that I am forever grateful and there are many more who need your help as well.

Don't deprive someone else out here who is struggling with alcoholism or cancer from your heartfelt, sincere words of wisdom because of something like this.

If you leave DS because of this, then the sick person who was bothering you wins.

You are a fighter, not someone who will be defeated by a sicko wackjob lowlife scumbucket rat turd psycho asshole!!!

We need you here, don't make me start a "Save the coogee" movement or come kick your ass, that's a long damn flight & I hate peeing on planes! "

" I sent the below to Coogee in a PM, then thought, why shouldn't ya'll see it.

Its all good. If you are who Coogee says you are, and I have no reason to believe that you are not, rejoice! You are an inspiration. Solid for those of us that are weak.

I am a nic-name kinda guy. I drop nic-names all the time. "Hey Bub", "Hey Toots", "what's up Doll?" That kinda stuff.

Last night I went to put my 12 year old son to bed. He was playing Xbox. I walk into his room and said "Hey Coogee, time for bed".

You move people with your words, and this dork in Texas (me) is using you as a term of endearment for his most beloved.

Heart felt PEACE "
