First and foremost a BIG THANKS to all who have reached out to me here and have been a big help (you know who you are); I've printed out the most recent threads from PB for future reference. Your kindness, caring and interest mean more to me than words can say (literally).
But I MUST leave these boards ... at least for now ... they're making me crazy (well crazier than I already am - LOL!) ... my desire to read and keep up with them is becoming obsessive (feeding into my existing OCD tendecies) and causing some other problems that I do not wish to go into at this time.
As I implied above, maybe I just nead a break, a hiatus ... saying that I must leave does not necessarily mean permanently. I may very well continue to just read here for awhile, and I do hope to return to post as well as read at some point. I also hope whoever reads this will understand.
Again, thank you.

Janelle, you're a real character - I love interesting people who are a little off-the-wall like me. I'll miss your posts but do what you think to be best for you. You know yourself better than us.
If you feel like communicating through e-mail sometimes or have a questions, feel free to contact me. I see certain elements of myslef when I was younger reflected in you.
[email protected] - make sure you let me know who you are so I don't think spam & block your mail. Take care.

I ditto what Phil said.
Plus, if not tomorrow, the next day.
And, I don't understand why you are leaving if it is something other than spending too much time here, like you said. Sometimes people may get upset and leave, but not say so. If you are upset, you should let us know what about. It will help us, and you, too, I bet.
Take it easy. I hope you continue to lurk, and stay connected to PSB.

Janelle:
I know you are not upset, and I know why you left. (And deep down I hope you are not even here lurking to see all the kindness being written about you.) When you are in trouble, this can wrap you up a little in lives that are not yours. And if OCD is your game, you've probably done the best thing you can do for yourself.
I wish you the strength and courage to get better, and I hope you are able to try some of what Iso and I suggested on PB.
You can count on this: we are always here when you need us. When you get better--and if, god forbid, you need more help. And you can reach me too at (here's the cryptic message--this is how to keep it from showing up on a search engine, so remember to type the underscores as lines, the at as the "at" sign, and the dot as a dot) the underscore great underscore bearded underscore one at yahoo dot com.
