In hindsite, I remember a time where my computer was my escape. My way of escaping my life. I notice that when I'm in a not-so-pleasant or healthy state of mind, I tend to want to escape via the internet. Having been able to acknowledge this has made a world of difference.
Today I use the computer as part of "me time". And in doing that, I've found that there have been times when the computer provided me a life-line of sorts. A line to reach out to others here when I needed you all the most as well as a life line to educating myself and reminding myself of my reality.
The people here on this forum have been a major major part of my life the past few years. I truly have wondered sometimes where I'd be today if I had not stumbled upon this site.
SR and the people here are always on my grateful list.
