Ul - when you get into Piecing it feels weird cos you've spent so long following these rules - no R talk, no pressure etc - but now that has changed. GO FOR IT!!! Remember to note if it's positive and keep doing what works.
You are so right too about not giving in - DB'ing takes FAR longer that you first think. I remember thinking when I had my bomb (in Sept 2005) that we'd be piecing in December 05 - well we didn't get there until about Dec 06 - just to show it takes more than you first think!!
You are doing really well though and I'm glad you're staying on the boards, yes there still will be dark days so it's good to have a source of support!!
