    not sure how this can really. I'm recognising some worrying emotions in myself because I've got overly involved in something I am now taking on board and it's dragging me down and triggering feelings I don't want to lose control over.

    You mean bottled-up feelings, rather than dealt-with feelings.

    cheers guys. It's a bit of a carp situation which has unfortunately opened a few of the loony doors in my head and dragged me down. The solution lies elsewhere and whilst I can help I can't be the provider of the answer and I really can't live someone elses life for them and I certainly can't put a roof over their head just so they can be absolved of responsibility of having an 'answer' to their current situation.

    As Sammy said first thing (very insightful especially as she didn't know what is wrong!) got to be cruel to be kind......and I feel I have been cruel, although I know what I have done is the right thing, just very, very painful to have to do to someone who isn't in the best place themselves at the moment .

    I'm signing off - I'm exhausted - but thankyou - and sorry to those I have splurged to who PM'd me, I'll be ok :o
    :D"Stay Wonky":D
