Goodbye...farewell

philnicandamy

.....from me.
I've decided the time has come to walk away from MSE...what again?? some might cry?......this time its for definate (and no Broken Hearted i'll not be back in a few weeks!!)

The support over the last 2 years or so has been fantastic and I'm slowly starting to turn my life around.
However, I now feel I have nothing to contribute and that there are many others who are much more experienced than me or are saying the same as I would after i've posted any information so I just feel sometimes like a parrot repeating information, things here have changed so much since I started posting, never would I reccomend hiding assets or try to defraud the OR or bend the truth on an I&E, when I started posting everyone seemed in such difficulty now every question seems to be how can I manage to keep the BMW, the pool cleaner and my 52 bed house without the OR getting upset.

I feel that I'm increasingly seeing MSE as my 'world..my life'. I spend 9-10hrs a day, basically looking at words on a screen whilst the real world out there passes me by and it's not healthy (for me).

I need get my life back 'out there' in the real world - locally - where I live, not relying on the comfort from words on a computer. I need to concentrate on my poor health..need to get myself fitter & loose weight for an operation I need that might make life better....cant do that sat in fromt of a computer screen 9hrs a day.... I didnt take my Bankruptcy that well & realized that its taking a hold on me worse than I thought...and i'm constantly annoyed by peoples attitude to how easy bankruptcy is..I lost more than just money the day I decided on bankruptcy...being here is turning me into something i've never been...i've been accused of being bitter & shallow whilst being online here....i've tried in the past to leave but always found myself coming back for one last hit..so in a way I suppose its an addiction

so why have I decided to leave?
well for mixture of reasons, a couple of them are MSE related (1 recent troll PM attack..I KNOW I shouldnt let something like that get to me..but feeling like this I cant help) and some are from stuff going on over the last few months, my relationship has been a constant struggle since my health took a decline, my parents are in very poor health & I'm shocked to see how downhill my dad is going fast..ok he's 78 but never looked his age and a few other things i'll keep to myself. Life's too short to be sitting here pressing refresh on a page to try & see if you can beat someone to a reply on a post . Emotionally, I'm rock bottom at the moment and I need to prise myself out of my 'ruts' and look to try to change things and I THINK MSE is one of my 'ruts'.

To all current and upcoming B&SC members, I hope you reach the goals you desire and find happiness in your lives in whatever way you want it.
For those in debt considering bankruptcy...its not the magic cure all some people posting here make it out to be, some people here can be quick to reccomend bankruptcy without explaining the implications involved, it is one of the hardest things i've done in my entire life even now after discharge I still feel like i'm treading water to make ends meet....but if your considering bankruptcy please contact any of the free debt helplines that are listed in many members sigs & you'll have some of the best support & advice you'll ever find in the guys & gals here

BLTN - Thank you for always cheering me up on my down days... your strength of character is amazing you are a Truly wonderful person..you've been a true rock for me

Fermi -The font of all knowledge without your help in the past i'd still be at square one....for that I thank you

Rich - The Big brother I never had....keep driving em all mad Bruv without you this place wouldnt be the relief it is for some sometimes...I know this place is in safe hands

BAT - The friend I never met....where would I have been without your kind messages in the past eh? i'll still be with you on the other side!

Madoldbat - My adopted big sister...thank you for the listening ear & the shoulder to lean on, you are a superstar! x

TightJock- where are you now? thanks for your first ever welcoming post when I came across the BR & Living with it forum if it wasnt for you i'd have never posted in the first place.

And to everyone I haven't mentioned. rog2, dave, dalip, SSA, etc - I apologise, there's so many great people around i'd be here thanking all day....to everyone else who came to this site looking for advice/support stick around your in safe hands

Thanks for listening..........:D
