cont. from PB ~
I know I have bumbled in here and been pretty reactive and yucky at times. I haven't been around people in a long time, and I lose my social and communication skills easily. If I have been an ass or offended or hurt anyone, please, if you want to, let me know. I will do what I can so no one *has* to let me know, but if I am just being clueless and you want to give me a nudge offline or on, please go ahead and do it before you or someone else gets the urge to give me a firmer thwack.
Codependant, boundaries, I'm relearning this stuff, but can only do so much in isolation. I'll try to relax and I've got a bit of vacation from the city coming up. And all of a sudden I'm learning to ask for help again, and realizing there are more polite and less painful methods to do so.
I will try to brush up my editing skills as well ;)
lo siento,
mars

De nada.
I hope that I can also be forgiven.
I appreciate your courage and openness in posting this. Thank you.
Sincerely,

Dear Scott -
It meant a lot to me that you posted this, for although I've never seen you exhibit the problematic behaviors I have been demonstrating, I appreciate the gesture. I've only seen evidence of a very kind, intelligent, supportive gentleman.
I wasn't being honest with anyone about how much help I needed, or needing help at all. On the one hand I was still looking for new information to help myself. On the other hand, I had a fully developed plan to off myself. I have dispensed with the latter.
In any case, I can't undo anything I've done (or erase anything I've typed), just try to be better. I know it hasn't been a good time for the board in general.
best,
mars
