Anthony, you know what PTSD is like, just how exhausting any day can be.
While I try my best to control my highs and lows.
I felt privileged to help whenever I could.
I hadn't been doing well most of 2007, so I stayed away
knowing that I was in no position to make decisions.
When I was doing better I came back late last year.

was it really needed?
The week that you sent me the message about editor changes,
was a hard week.
And the message that I was no longer needed here,
made me feel as though all those hours (over the course of the site)
I spent moderating were worth nothing.
I understand that you did this for professional reasons,
not personal or attacking in any way.
But it still hurts

Hence why I had taken months off last year.

Thanks for the 'Thank You'...
it helps take the edge off as I'm 'unstaling' myself
This message has not been posted in anger.
It has been sitting in my laptop notepad being edited over 3 days.
As this is a touchy subject for me now.
