I agree with daizy--please be sure you are doing this for you and not because someone else has hurt your feelings.
For many, this site only exacerbates problems. And it does cause one to dwell on one's problems.
At the same time, it provides support and a couple of laughs.
Ask yourself a few questions: Have you failed to improve since coming to Babble? Do your feelings of self-worth have to do with others' opinions of you on this board? Do you often dwell on stuff you've posted, feeling you've said the wrong thing? Do posting and reading take up much of your time, time that you should spend doing other things that slip by?
If you answer yes to a couple of the questions, you should probably take a break until you feel better.
Shannon, I wish you all the luck in the world, whatever you decide. Peace be with you.
