Great to hear from you, Vicki!  You look fantastic!!  Yes, toxic relationships can definitely sink any ship trying to attain "normalcy".  It's a struggle, as I know I am a co-dependent person, but some of the solid, healthy relationships that I have built the past few years help me to keep my head straight!!

 Happy Bandiversary Melly! It is a journey and can certainly be a love-hate relationship. I applaud you for your dedication to yourself by doing and cininuing to do all you cn for your health. 

I hit 4 years in March! I haven't been on in a looong time but I do remember you. 

Keep doing it!

Best,

Karen

I lost a small person...the one inside who was telling me 'I wasn't beautiful enough'.  See ya later!  You are surely not missed!
