I am here for a long time. My journey is just beginning.
The way I see it is this:
Of my original tribe, RD, Sotto, Greengrass, Dawn, Pink still post
Although not as much sometimes
The ones I miss are Edz, Jim, Old Dog, Zelda, Mustardseed, Joe, Susannah, Gan, Little, Schermann, WhyUs, .....
All were part of my journey and I thank them, especially my early tribe members
I have a new tribe, you, pigpen, Jellyb, Fo, Anc.....
Latest is Zephyr, Sci, and I apologise if I missed anyone
People move on and I am happy for them if they move on to new growth whether they repair or not. Truthfully new tribe members arrive and others cease to post. As you progress and learn so the insights arrive. Please acknowledge that as your journey progresses so you will have more to offer others. In doing so, especially with the work we do here which is actually quite involving the more you learn about you the greater the feedback you can give.
As I 'age' on the site so I grow. My tribe ages with me too. I am two years in and still developing.
I notice sometimes I post a great deal on my 'own' thread and other times very very little. It's ok.
Newbies help each other in real time too. Others I follow but can't help much Julie, Zues and some newbies I can't help I ask others to intercede if it suits them. I know little of wayward wives or MLC so all I can do is comfort and support those in that sitch. There are a couple of posters here that I wish would cease to post!! But that too is part of my journey and perhaps my greatest challenge.
I have noticed that those who last here do the greatest growth. Most of that is independent of here, they marinade then return.
In time Mu, this will be true for you. Your tribe will change as you grow. The board needs this poster as they do most of the incite full work. Newbies is the toughest for turnover of posters.
This is as it should be. This is your journey and we are helping each other along. Take your time, I certainly am, I post here in spurts you will notice. Don't force it, when it's ready to link to your higher spirit then it will flow.
I am ok, there is no expectation on my part, there is nothing either of us needs to prove. We are experimenting and communicating, it may work wholly or in part, or even intermittently. Down to each of us.
That's fine by me, post as you will.

Until we can mourn the past we are doomed to repeat it
