Sorry to hear you have the flu @LostAngel . It sounds like you have been through a lot. But also that you have good insight into what happened and what you need going forward. Good on you for knowing what you want and taking steps to get there. Hopefully the flu will pass quickly and you can start down the process to feeling better mentally as well. As @tyme says, I am impressed by your resilience.

As much as you feel you are wading through, based on what you've shared, I think I would be paddling and keeping my head JUST above water @LostAngel !
I have followed your 'story' for a number of years now, and to see how much you've grown is truly incredible. I always love seeing your posts pop up 🙂
