Stop what MJ? I responded to your email and it came back. You didn't unblock me.
I had more important things to do today than deal with anymore of this petty crap.

As you should all be aware by now i only post when I have something to say, even if its not my place too lol.
MJ firstly i respect you greatly and you have been on the site for far too long to let anything bug ya, you should of seen it all by now petty squabbles etc. the main priorty here is recovery for you, i feel your urgency to fit in/belong well its not important what is important is you right now. Im not critizing you hun just concerned that recovery sometimes comes a second best to popularity on here.
Lisa ive known you for a long time and seen lots of changes going on with you some good some bad some indifferent as the saying goes, whilst im aware of your recent ill health i cant help but fear you might be slipping into using it for your own ends that with your popularity stakes on here. i might not post as much but sure do read a lot. Now i know il get slammed but hey you should know me by now what ever i say on here is never out of malice more out of care for my fellow human being. jaxxxxxxxx

Lisa,
Just wanted you to know I was thinking about you. It's funny that me of all people would say that, huh? Considering our rocky past. Anyway, it is nice to " let things go isn't it? It's to much energy to hold a grudge.
Call one of your face to face friend's. Go to lunch, get a pedicure, get a massage and just do something special for yourself this weekend. You deserve it.
I don't know exactly what is going on in this thread but I can only assume someone told someone something and someone has a problem with you? LOL Don't worry about anything that happens on this board that should be the least of your worries. We are all old enough to know how are true friend's by now. If someone was your true friend they would have called you and said Hey Lisa what's up?
One thing I have learned about this board is pick a few turstworthy people to talk to off the board and that's it. I have a few people I talk to off this board. Some oldtimer's that no longer post here and a FEW that do. It is just better that way.
I don't need everyone's e-mail address from this board. I don't love everyone here NOT even close. I limit the people I trust and I can see through most of the Bullsh*t around here. This is the LAST place I would ever dream of coming to vent my problems too or share my life with. PULEASE.
I have plenty of face to face friend's that I can confide in. I am sure the same is true for you. So don't allow any of this to bother you. It is so not worth it, especially with what you've been through this year. At the end of the day when it comes right down to it does it really matter what happens here? I didn't think so.
Off to start my day. I have so much Christmas shopping to get done.
Have a good weekend.
Peace out.
Rae

Yea, it's amazing that someone has a problem with me...lol, hard to imagine, isn't it?

You rock.

First of all, I agree with that statement. There was a time when I would come here with just about any of my problems. There input I got was priceless to me at the time. Now, now freakin way would I come here with anything too personal or too painful. I wasn't here yet when Rae joined the board, so I don't know if she has always felt this way, or if this is just how she feels now.
This probably would have been worthy of a new thread, because how I feel has nothing to do specifically with MJ, Lisa or any recent events around here. However, I think it is sad that we, and many others, do not feel we can come here with our problems. The ones I see opening themselves up are usually newer members. I just don't often see many long time members doing this. Why??? A so called anonymous internet forum seems like a place where people could take their problems that they couldn't bring themselves to discuss in real life.
I wish everyone felt as if they could come here and talk about anything. I like talking to newcomers, but there are some who post and sometimes get mostly ignored. To be honest, I don't even know why I still come here. I don't think I benefit much from being here, and I'm not sure if I even help anyone. I like most of the people here, so maybe that's it. But the more I type the more I realize I may just be wasting time by logging on here. This forum is far from what it used to be when I first joined last October. I think it may be time for me to evaluate my reasons for being here, and if it would be better for me to stop coming.
I'm off my point, which was I think it is very sad that long time members (myself included) don't feel safe posting their problems here.

Rae:
That was a beautiful post.
Atlas:
I have the same exact feelings you stated. Thank you for succinctly articulating your feelings. You truly have a way with words.
Love,
Rachel

Atlas,
I could not agree more.
I joined in November of 05 and things seemed completely different. In the beginning I told all, and it really did help. Now I feel as if I have to screen what I say for some reason, and just dont feel as comfortable talking about certain issues on here as I once did.
It does seem as if the newcomers are the ones that really open up and talk about there situation.
You are not the first person that has said this either, I heard someone say this just the other day about how much this board has changed, and it is true. I really miss the way it was.
You were one of the first people to come on to help me, that first day. I wont ever forget that.
I guess I am just glad I am not the only one that has noticed this.
Hugs.

Atlas...that is exactly the way that I have been feeling as of late. When I joined this forum last December...I felt learned so much and was so grateful. I have always been real Leary of posting anything to personal here from what I have watched go down. I agree with 100%....I too have bee re-examining why I post and read...and like you..mostly because I like the people here and somehow our lives even though a small portion of them have become intertwined...so anyway just wanted to say I understand where you are coming from
If you are someone on here that is constantly involved in the drama that goes down here...I would take a step back and ask...WHY...am I at the heart of alot of these situations....am I just a consummate victim? or what do I do to escalate these situations......I have always told my kids to examine these things when they feel they have been unjustly accused of something.
Anyway...we are all just people trying to navigate through this disease of addiction. that is for the most part why we are all here!

Good morning all,
Its been awhile since I been around, I popped in to see how things have been going with everyone, to no suprise it is still the same.
Atlas, I so agree with you,
When I first came here a year ago Oct. this was a saving grace for me, Rae was dabomb for me as with a few others.
I have really been trying to keep as much drama out of my life, so I decided to stay away from here, since I can't fix anyone but myself.
I hope one day everyone can find the peace and honsety with themselves, then maybe all the petty BS will stop. But then no it won't, since no one is alike, we will all need to agree to disagree...
Hope you all have a safe holiday season,
Take care,
Krazi/Traci
I owe a few emails to some, I will get there I promise, its best for my back and my mind not to sit here all day. Gee all the pogo games I use to like I no longer can get into them either. Sometimes I feel really old.....my back just doesn't want to do what I need it to do, have been seeing a chiro. to see if it can help, but still not popping pills like I was,( took 5 vics the whole month of Nov., but then again I did take a 16 hr drive to Washintion with 2 horses, so sitting that long killed me) have to be honest when my brother and I got stranded ( computer in truck went out, so we lived in a hotel until they could get the computer from east coast) in Oregon for a week I did smoke a few cigs though, but back home ( thanksgiving day) and gonne start all over again.......it helps though not having drama or stress around me...
