I just got home from Walmart (God, I hate that place) and thought I'd do a quick login before hopping in the bath with D6... I saw your note to me on my thread.
I hope that it's a cathartic cry, friend. Because I see some similarities in our behaviors... well, at least I can honestly say that I've successfully been able to keep that in check with a lot of help.
I still vividly remember my first post to Cycler--it was frightening and my stomach hurt from the flip flops as we really delved into this. Someday, she can help me write that book--with Meredith's help. Because I believe that you were cut from the same cloth as me and my fellow shark, Anchor.
Read back... BTW, Cycler (Trish) is not a crazymaker. Her H is. So don't get too confused by the fact that we explored this together (and I really hope she is alright--I miss her).
Now I'm changing my next order to do a bit of pampering. This knowledge is a blow, and I can guess that you're feeling a little low.
The good news is that you don't have to reinvent the wheel to get through this stuff--you have me and Meredith to help with the crazymaking, and the rest of the Piecing crew to help you with the myriad other issues that will pop up.
So promise me that you'll really celebrate with your H, okay? Become the woman he can't live without. We'll help you with the crazymaking.
Big bear hugs.
