Yeah, you're not the first person today to tell me cut myself some slack... the truth of it is that I don't have the resilience at the moment to put myself out there on that board any more.
It's not that my own sobriety is at any risk, because it's as strong as ever. But I don't think it's a good place for me to be extending my wholehearted support, which really needs to be reciprocated in order to be healthy. It's one thing to help yourself by helping another person - it's something else (and something utterly lacking, for me) to put yourself out there and not ever see it mean anything to the other person.
So I'm in retreat mode.
