Thank you Lily, and john and everyone else.

I love this forum, it has helped me a great deal since I found it, and I like to think that I help other people even if it only to offer my support if they are going through a rough time.

I think everyone on here deserves an award for making this site the best in the business!

Oh gee, this is the first week I've managed since I don't know when, when I haven't cried - well, it was up to 2 mins ago! Thanks so much MTL. I love reading other people's blogs. And I love writing mine and hoping that people get something out of it - possibly that it makes them think 'Ok, things aren't so bad after all!'

i think we should all just take a few minutes now and say to ourselves...
"yeah..you can do this "

then...get blogging....LOL

OH thank you all, it's cheered me up no end. My blog is selfishly as much for my benefit as for others as it's a good release of my feelings x
