I have returned, but I will use caution.

Post Reply New Topic

I have just made a couple posts tonight---the first since Feb. 26. I got anxiety from some of the threads in the past, and finally I said enough is enough---I'm leaving. But I would still log in and see if I had any PMs and very briefly look at some threads. But tonight, I decided to post.

But I will use caution. I will try not to look at threads of the type that typically cause me anxiety. Don't ask me what kinds of threads those are---they vary a bit. They can be about many different things. And when I open one---BAM---ANXIETY. I am going to try to look for threads that seem enjoyable to me or ones that aren't so likely to cause me issues.

Anyway, I am glad to be back---I think.

That seems wise.

It's nice to see you back.

Welcome back, take your time it'll probably feel better after awhile

So that's why you have been gone.

Taking breaks are always good. I've been away from here for two weeks or three back in May and June.

It's nice to see the older ones back, and I wish more would do the same.

Breaks are always good especially in such an intimate environment like this. I took a 3 year break because like last year it was dog eat world but now its a lot better.

I'm happy to see you back, here.

Good to see you back.

Thanks everyone for your kind comments in welcoming me back. Wow CockneyRebel---your post amount!! ! Have you surpassed Tim Tex? Good for you.

I wish I had your level of restraint. I always have to add my two cents to threads that get me riled up. I'm sure that's no good for my reputation.

Welcome back. I was thinking about you periodically, wondering where you were.

I wish I had the same awareness of my own anxiety. Sometimes things build up and I obsess about them so much that I can't do anything else. However, I can't really identify what things are causing me to be anxious in the first place, unless someone gives me some kind of hints.

Welcome back.

I take frequent breaks too, hence my low post count on here despite me being a member for a while.

Waves, wavingly.

I'm avoiding News and PPR meself.

I'm very happy to see you back - your posts are unique and very interesting. But I know what you're talking about - I only read the forum once in a while and post very rarely.

It is nice to see you here again, Glider!

I experience anxiety when being attacked, and there have been a few times when I have dreaded the thought of even coming here at all. Start a thread in "Members Only" or something the next time you have a little trouble and maybe we can all walk through it together.
