In reply to the discussion: Goodbye friends [View all]slightlv
(7,717 posts)193. I'm wishing you the best of luck in your treatments,
and sending you lots of healing light for your situation. You're one of the people I look forward to "seeing" every day around here, so I'll definitely miss you. But I'm fighting my own fight with all the politics. Blood pressure going up too high and staying there, anxiety and rage with no catharsis. I'm backing away from some of it, little by little, myself. I only check in here once, maybe twice a day most days now. And other than substack, I'm not on any social media anymore.
I know you're around my area someplace, so if you ever need anything please DM me. I'll be keeping you in my thoughts...

You have no credibility because you've had 100s of banned posts with the same tone. Why don't you make a healthy change

Take care, KS Toronado. There's a technique for reducing stress/anxiety that I've recommended on DU before

Maybe you could stick around and avoid the political forums. You need all the support you can get as you go through

I haven't been around here that long, but 458 recommendations (and counting) must be some sort of record.
