Don't know where to post this.

I may not want to hear the critics but I need to hear them. I will make more mistakes but I need to make less of them than before. I am learning. I am afraid and it makes me stupid. Am I the only one to ever be in this position?

Whether I want to hear or not a question. I must hear. I have reread this whole thread 3 times now. I will reread it again. I need as much help as I can get.

This is the first time I have encountered this and don't know how to handle it.

All help is welcome. I have read and will continue to read until this begins to sink in. I also have friends (a couple) who went through this 10 years ago trying to read this thread and help me.

Thank you so very much in advance.
