It reminds me of the time when I was afraid, almost, to leave the house because of panic attacks. But I'd promised my son, years earlier, that if Michael Jackson ever had a concert here we'd go. Pretty bad timing as my incapacity coincided with MJ's coming to Leeds. Anyway, like you I'd do anything for my kids, so I hired a car, and with heart racing, drove over to Leeds really dreading the massive crowds........but before I knew what was happening........like you I was in the midst of thousands of people. And it wasn't in the least threatening.......I never felt such a feeling of 'belonging' .....before or since. :-)

It's a fantastic feeling to achieve something so far outside your comfort-zone so I just wanted to let you know, Michelle, that I think I really do know how you feel. Well done girl !! ;-) xx

It's great to hear how you've 'risen from the ashes' over the past couple of months. :-)

Suffering from too much enjoyment beats suffering from depression doesn't it ? Once again, Michelle, well done............and I love the way you include your kids in everything. x
