@tyme I have actually considered the Recovery Support as I know I have a few issues that need to be addressed and that is probably the best way!

While you wait for everything else, at least you get 15 weeks' support. The first point of contact after your referral only takes 24-48 business days @Arbie_wun That's the beauty of it.

Let me know if you need help checking your eligibility. @Arbie_wun If you go to the Guided Recovery Link, it should all be there.

@tyme ... unfortunately my location is rather rural and remote so that has hampered me as they are not accepting referrals from this area at the moment!

hrm... I guess you're not moving house any time soon to be able to put your new address? @Arbie_wun
Otherwise, you can have a look at the Recovery Club, but it's not 1:1 support. It's more psycho-education connection and learning. https://www.sane.org/recovery-club

@Arbie_wun actions speak louder than words. Preferably one should match the other.
Ghosting says more about the person doing the ghosting, than it does you.
Spineless as well as bad manners and a lack of respect for others.
As for the woman who went back to her husband. Sometimes you got to be happy, that they are doing what makes them happy.
Relationships are difficult because a lot of it, isn’t about you.
I recently did a couple of dumbass things to a good friend. Leftover trauma responses. Fear of rejection and getting hurt. I really did myself a disservice.

@Glisten I totally understand that, I have messed up a few times recently with a good friend trying to keep them out of my mess. Unfortunately it seems a former friend has in fact worked out who they are and messaged them.
I attempted to hide who this person was with a "smoke screen" and it's been used to upset the friend. I have apologised as much as I could and understand their upset. Naturally they have been given only some of the information (along with some falsehoods)
I'm rather upset by it but I have to let my friend vent and hope they understand.
