Isn't this the title of a Nirvana song too?
Kurt Cobain....there *was* one highly sensitive person.
Keep talking Bobbie.

flower:
Welcome Bobbie!
I do hope you stay.
I've found some really nice people here who are consistently positive and helpful. I really have found support here when I needed it the most.
Michelle:
--- Quote ---Good onya' Michelle. I admire what you said, and how you thought it through. Once again, very well said. You are responsible for 'you' here, and your healing. You're not responsible for any-one else here. And your warmth and sincerity comes through once again.

I appreciate that very much CG. Thank you.

allusedup:
thanks to everyone who replied to me regarding my hesitancy in posting my current situation. Every one of you had some good points.
Feline, thanks so much for the support, but I didn't feel discounted or dehumanized - just felt I was being answered by an objective person who was not forcing opinions on me, just putting them out for me to consider, and actually said things I know to be true about myself.
Feline - your reply touched me. I feel we may share some of the same feelings (as do many here), no matter what brought those feelings on. I believe you when you say "I hear you", because you speak (write) with empathy.
Dawning - that "all apologies" is a "thing" of mine...when I feel I have to apologize for anything and everything that's ever happened, whether it has to do with me or not - but also, I use it as a sincere effort to apologize when I feel I may have hurt someone unintendedly.
flower - thanks for the welcome! Actually been here since Oct., 2003, but didn't post much, and as I mentioned had to change names since my log-in wasn't working (tho it does with the new name). In the interest of honesty, old username was I_am_mine, and altho it's still in the system, I will not be using it again.
Will be totaly tied up with legal issues involving N-Alzheimer's dad, who my sis and I have finally, after years of illusion, decided is a f*cking waste of skin! Also have a vacation planned, but after our meeting with attorney tomorrow, may not be able to make it. Have to speak to doctors, lawyers, caregiving agencies, and a partridge in a pear tree, plus try to get some clothing washed for vacation...don't know if i'm up to it. depression/anxiety kicking in badly...not going to ramble.
you all have tried to make me feel more comfortable in sharing, and i think it's working - after all, if I don't take some risks (of my own choosing), i'll stay stuck and never discover who i really am.
thank you so much. when i get some time and energy, i'll just start my own topic, instead of appending on to this one.
will be thinking of your support tomorrow at lawyer's office, as sis and I try to both protect dad from elder abuse (as if he deserves it), and gain guardianship over him (woo-hoo! can't wait!).
thanks for being here.

He must have been/is a real stinker of a dad.
