Chugg's friends

I am removing my entire friendslist. Please no one be offended, my lack of attention resulted in offending someone close. This prompted a step I've been thinking about a lot since my last recovery. I want to be equally available to everyone on DS, and having a friends list in my mind isolates people. I consider all of DS my friend. Love you all

Hey Chug, I've never found you pompous or anything other than cool. By explaining your actions here, you've shown that you care for the feelings of others. No worries.

You may say you notice now, but how attentive have I really been to you all in reality? I see you online but hardly ever initiate anything with anyone. Sometimes you will show support to my by hug or message and while it truly makes me feel warm, I will often times not thank you for it. getting burned by the people I consider in my real life even to be my best friends, then having the feeling of one friend after another drop me because of rumors, sort of gave me a dose of online reality I didn't care to taste.

While my goal on DS is to help as many people as I can, I have become reclusive to the friends I did have, neglecting them. I never intended for that to happen, and for that I sincerely apologize.

    I find myself going places in the car and not wanting to get out of the car. I come back home and I don't want to get out of the car. I think it's the only time I spend reflecting. Chronic tiredness from Long Covid plus the immunosupressing meds for my Crohn's is slowing me down but everything just seems a massive effort. I am dealing with the paperwork following my father's death but it's not...

    Wow, it's the middle of the week already!Today is our 11 year anniversary, so we're going out to a nice dinner.  I'm losing a lot of sleep these days, hence a wonky schedule and uncomfortable feelings.  But I know it will pass, eventually.I hope all of you have a peaceful day, and may good things come your way!
