    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.

    Hi Guys,

    I really need your help.

    As you know I only ever really post on this thread apart from 2 other posts that I have made on another thread. One being tonight.

    I came across a post from someone whose partner had fell off the wagon after 7 months of being af.

    I posted what I thought was a message of support, informing her of our thread where we have recovering alcoholics etc.

    I only meant for her to have some support but apparently a couple of posters have reported my post to the abuse team :eek:

    I really really don't know what to do. You all know me on here and know that I would never ever intentionaly upset someone.

    I really don't think I can carry on posting now :o

    I feel so upset.

    Oh heavens, what can I do? :confused:

    Please help

    I had a look at your post. Imho it was perfectly fine and a lovely post. I don't know how anyone could call it in anyway abusive.I'm sure you'll be ok. You should see what gets posted on other boards - your post was positively tame imho.

    Hope your back gets better soon getwell.gif

  • Morning

    BB I have read the thread and your post was not the cause of the report to abuse. It was the fact of a merger with another thread that was the problem

    Nothing to do with you my dear ;)

    Still on 9 :o still another day today

    Have a nice one

    I have just read the thread and you are right it was the merging that was reported to the abuse team not Budget Babe's post.

    Well done on 9 :T:T:T No shame in that surely :D

    Budgie, sweetie, more big hugs. Try not to worry, I also echo what Maman & Angie have said :)

    I'm off to bed shortly; been a long day & busy tomorrow. Just have to report that I went to the cupboard to pour another glass of wine, took the bottle out, looked at it, then put it back in! Round of applause for me for not drinking just for the sake of it :T

    Night everyone :)

    bearhugs
