  • Hi everyone <little wave>

    Sorry I haven't been around for a while, but unfortunately I ended up letting everything that's happened in the last 12 months or so get right on top of me and quite frankly, I thought I was losing my mind. This culminated with a trip to see my GP who was just amazing and to cut a very long story short she's given me some <cough> happy pills to help me get over the worst of it :o

    I just didn't want you all thinking I'd abandoned the forum and all of you after all the kindness, support and advice I've received - that's why I've told you what I've said above.

    A-slightly-sheepish-Scarlett :o xx

    ps. no word on our BRUs yet.
    You can't control everything in life....... your hair was put on your head to remind you of that :p

    Liquid form Dalip, can you afford that!:rotfl:

    Nice to see you back Scarlett, and hope you are on the road to recovery, stress comes out in many ways, and often when we least expect it to hit it does.

    Keep smiling, and taking the pills.

    Hi Scarlett,

    Glad to `see` you back. Keep taking the pills Honey. After all you`ve been through the stress has to surface at some time so take it easy.

  • Scarlet, I just wanted to thank you so much for this thread, its been an inspirational read and has really made me think that BR isn't as bad as I thought. I am trying to talk hubby into it and think it will be the best all round. Thanks again *hug*

    Hi Reevesie, I'm glad it helped you :) and best of luck to you on your BR journey.


    I haven't updated this thread for a while because, well, there's been nothing to update really!

    We still haven't heard anything re our BRUs, despite the OR saying that we'd hear about H's by the middle of October :confused: Don't know whether to contact him about it and ask? Or should I leave well alone?!!

    I've started feeling a LOT better in the last week or 2 :o so think the happy pills have finally started to get into my system, which is a huge relief. I can finally feel the "big black cloud" that seems to have been following me around starting to lift :)
