I am notorious for not opening letters that could mean trouble... Mainly bills and general admin-stuff. I have had a (unscary) email in my inbox for weeks and i can't bring myself to read it, because I just feel like I let down that person (even if I know I didn't really let them down).
Point is- I didn't want to click and read your post because the title hit home so strongly. Talk of crazy thinking!
