Hi-
I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings and I really don't want to start a big deal and tons of mean posts, but I got one of those chain letters again today saying that I would "know if I was loved" if I got x number of them back.
I thought we had talked about this a few weeks ago and agreed no more chain letters. There are people here who are really in bad places, and feel so alone. The last thing they need is the feeling that everyone is on some list and that if you don't have a list, you are not loved.
Please let's don't do this to each other. This is a great space. There are people here that really work at helping each other all the time. I just think that these chain letters feel very middle school "who is most popular". I know you can just delete, but I think they hurt feelings.
Can we agree,,,no chain letters? Or is this just me?

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...

theatre and I are there already. I'm having a very berry tea with crackers, cheese and cherry tomatoes and she's having a joint with some beer and we're both on really comfy recliners on thick pile carpet. we need some help with the decor if anyone is around??
I vote no chain letters.

I come here, try to answer as many posts as I can, send huggs and messages and recieve them, appreciativley, but my time at the pc is limited as I share it with two other people.
Can't we just stop sending these types of things? Stress is a big part of grief. Guilt is a big part of grief. We don't need to give each other more of it, just care about one another. Rainbowmama
