I think I visited Admin 1x. It reminds me too much of trying to fix the governmental system that I work in every day and as a person who is usually the "idea" person, I decided that this was the place that I wanted to be "just" one of those that needed help and gave help on an individual basis. I just couldn't face anymore global, system, right/wrong challenges. I still can't here.
I'm surprised by how sad I get when my posts are not responded to. And I love so much of the advice I get. And I've been in Open in a gosh-darn "talk to me now" crisis, both mine and others. I know when I had my own, it kept me safe for the hour I needed it to. I guess the nurturing I've found out weighs the other stuff. But I'm really selective on what I'll read, when I stop reading and even how I respond.
I wish everyone could find a balance that meets their needs. It frightens me to see some of you who I've come to really look forward to corresponding with say you are close to being done.
At least don't give up on Open, OK?I feel like a little kid clutching a cone while the ice cream that has plopped out is melting on the ground. :(
