    I guess thats a cry for help and you would like me to call someone to stop you doing anything stupid :cool:

    Sorry but no, I suggest you stick around and face up to the situation that you caused

    I'm sorry, just really confused, what you mean is hubby can see kids but I can't, they're really attached to me, I don't know what to do, I was unwell when I wrote that, and my CPN knows as I was telling him at the time, he thought it was harmless to do it

    Really intriguing documentary about a guy that got chatting to an eight year old girl a fantastic artist and got involved with all her family including falling for her sister ...so utterly convincing as a real family.....went on for 9 months....but all was far from what it seemed.... say no more cos u gotta watch it... just goes to show how people can create a total fantasy life online.


    Oh i have it recorded. Must watch it!

    Part of the Furniture Photogenic Combo Breaker
    If you are for real you need help and support, if u are fake u need help and support... basically i'd get off ere pick up the phone n chat to a real friend. looking for comfort here wont help your situation and may even make you feel worse cos people can be synical when they dont know you as a real person. I hope u get things sorted andrea i really do for your sake ur kids and husband. good luck.

    Is it wrong to have a little smile appear on my face? I know if this is genuine (which i doubt) then i would go to your GP and demand to be sectioned straight away!
    On a plus note, i will print this thread off, with a heading of......"Why it's wrong to lie", will come in handy with my 3 year old if she tells me she hasn't ate the last chocolate bar, when i know she clearly has!!
    If it ain't reduced, i don't buy it! :j

    Shame on the lot of you judging. OP asked for help and advice. Maybe she is a troll, but if you think so, you don't need to respond. Mental illness can't just be turned on and off, and if the OP is genuine, then she would have found it nigh-on impossible to avoid behaving the way she did, especially if she was off her normal prescribed meds. OP if SS get involved they will assess your full situation, including contact with your psych, CPN etc, and your home situation will be assessed. If your children are safe, they won't take them off you, but you need to be honest with your OH and your CPN about what you have been doing and feeling. It may be an idea to get your internet disconnected for a few weeks break, too. Good luck and take care of yourself.

    !!

    Yes it is wrong, because while it may be a wind up, in may not be, so to be so judgemental is just cruel.

    I don't think she needs to be sectioned, she's having treatment and is on medication. Maybe she just needed a sounding board.

    Reading the email, some of the stuff they're on about can't really cause concern. Some of the stuff on there is true, I always started with the truth, and then exaggerated. This is what worries me.

    Some of the things are everyday things that most people would do, and I can't see why they've highlighted these (such as sending saucy photos to each other), but they seem to think that because my hubby did it first, he is controlling & abusing, this has me concerned, as I assumed that most people may have rude photos of their OH, and I really don't relish talking about those - on an anonymous, faceless computer is one thing, to have it dragged up and talked about in person is another, and they've trawled through everything I have ever written, even in reply to another person's thread, and seem to be using it against me.

    So it isn't all lies, though a lot is exaggerated. But why bring up bits about my sex life, that I was talking about (truthfully), along with others?

    It's made me realise that the internet is not anonymous, or somewhere where you can feel safe to reach out
