Will do Sean. Thanks for the reminder. Sometimes I fall off a bit and just need to hear it from someone else.
Shannon, thanks a lot. It's really nice to hear it from someone that moved past it all. Especially when a lot of advice out there emphasizes coping the rest of your life with it and not really solving it. You really do get it though and this story just helped give me hope for my own future. These days I need every last bit of hope I can get, especially because of my long history of struggling with these things.
I think I'm going to start a new thread for the OFGS sub so things are less cluttered in here and people don't get confused.
