I just wanted to say thank you for the online meetings and chats. I work odd hours (nights) and the one meeting locally is sorta falling apart. For that reason I rely on the online meetings and chat for support. Sometimes it's nice to just have a place to talk about how I feel to those who understand as perhaps no others can.
I recently had a situation that was upsetting me and I was having a tough time dealing with it. Doing alot of stinking thinking and projecting and was able to go into the chat room and have someone listen and understand. You'd be amazed at what that does just for someone to say hey it's ok we've been there. Just having someone listen helped me to think a little more clearly. Not that fixed the situation but it helped me to handle it a little healthier. The situation still sorta sucks but I'm better able to deal with it.
