I'm Leaving RYL.
 

This is to let everyone know that I am, to all intents and purposes, leaving RYL. You might see me around from time to time, but I am not planning to post on the forums for the foreseeable future, either to give or receive support, or socially.

My decision is a confirmation of thoughts I've had for some time now. I did leave RYL before, and then came back. But since then, as my healing has progressed further, coupled with the current climate on RYL, it is no longer in my best interests to be here. Both my psychotherapist and GP back my decision completely, which is reassuring.
The current climate on RYL doesn't suit my personality or recovery needs.
I've gained so much from being on RYL over the years. And I do think, with some tweaks here and there, it can help many more people as it has done and does now. It's just not for me any more, it doesn't 'fit'.

I could say much more, but I'll leave it at that.

I'll be logging in regularly at least over the next little while, to check pm-s and such. If anyone would like my email address, pm me. I know some of the people I'm closest with here already have.

Thanks for everything, and all the best for the future,

Katie

I remember Harley saying before that RYL should be a stepping stone towards recovery - and I'm glad that you've reached a point where you feel it'd be in your best interest to leave.
It's always sad to see people, especially somebody who's been so influential on RYL, going, but it's a good thing that you are moving on - good luck and please do let us know how your life goes, Katie :)

I wish you all the best with your continued progress and recovery :)

I'm sad to hear that you're leaving but you do what's best for you.

I just want you to know that you've helped me a lot, and that I'll miss you on here.
