Thanks for sharing your feelings about your business and work. I can imagine that it took some time and contemplation before you decided to publish this. I appreciate your insights because I think more people need to hear your story.

I'm not going to try to solve your problems or offer any self-help other than I can relate to your feelings. You're not alone. And I'm always available to talk things through with you.

Thanks Cory. And I actually chickened out when I published it, I didn’t dare share it to Facebook. Although I find relief in admitting my faults and struggles, I’m still apprehensive about doing it too publicly.

You're welcome. I totally get it. I hope you can eventually get to a point where you're more comfortable. The way I see it, most people are too concerned with their own lives to even notice what's happening with somebody else.

Keep the candid stories coming. I find them helpful.

Ben, well written. I'm so sorry. I wish I could help. If I can, know that I will. Please don't give up the fight. I still believe it's worth it. Mumzey
