Yep! it is meant to be meaningful because it can be very confusing to people who come here to find some advice and get hit with all sorts of "slang"

I have an AD (thought have never said it on this site) = anxiety disorder.

I know there is a few on the guide but no nearly as meany as poeple use.

Thank you for letting us know what all of these mean, I quite often find myself reading threads, seeing abbreviations and being like 'What are they talking about?!'

I don't have any to add... I just thought I'd say thanks

Rach , I'm in the process of fixing it, I just havent posted it yet!



Well it breaks my heart to see you this way,
The beauty in life, where's it gone?
And somebody told me you were doing okay,
Somehow I guess they were wrong.
