Hey, take it easy. You sound like a really sensitive and thoughtful
person. Be sweeter to yourself, you deserve it. You've got a rare honesty
and a willingness to carry your head above all the shit. Well done on that.
I certainly know where you're coming from (you know, when you can't even
SPELL properly?!....only joking!). Believe me, it gets a lot better.
I'm not going to start slamming pyschology on you. My only comment
is that there is nothing outside of you that's going to help you as well
as the beauty and power inside you.
Talk it out, that always helps. People love helping other people
out, so you're doing them a favour too by telling them your woes!
take care, Brian
PS Remember Michael Stipe's words (I bet you detest REM and this has just
ruined everything I wrote!): "you're not alone". That's it.
