I commend you for not retreating.
You put your heart out in your post here despite that gutted feeling and you were taken in with open arms (even if not literally). I am glad to hear it helped and you are slowly stitching your feelings back up.
Hang in there, friend.

I've learned these past two weeks by watching Amber allowing herself to be open to the good that it's of benefit to me to do the same.
I can't say that I still don't feel gutted, but it takes up less space in my head and heart each day.
It's good to see you posting!

"It's good to see you posting!"
Thanks for that! It's been a while for me. Haven't felt up to it in a long time. Kinda raw myself. Had a small breakthrough recently, and I'm a little stronger for it.
Your update on Amber recently lifted my fog a lot.
Or
Maybe I just missed those good vibes on the Kansas wind.
More on that sometime soon, I hope.

Hugs! Absolutely.
Ever notice how sometimes you just don't feel like hugging until someone hugs you first and you realize just how hug deficient you really were?
I hope you feel a little better as the hugger, 'cause I sure feel better as the huggee. lol.
