IB - I also wanted to add that my first e-mail came in April of 2008. Some days I feel like I've come a LONG way, and other days I feel like an utter basket case---as if it was that day 2 1/2 years ago (2 1/2 years!!)DO NOT beat yourself up, take more blame upon yourself than you should (we all have some blame in this)or let this defeat you. We all get through this in our own time. Some that find this site seem to be able to rebound very quickly, but there are those of us (like me) that take a LONG time to get it - and a LONG time to heal. Let yourself feel the pain and then start the healing.
