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,
*cuddles*
Im glad you recognised that you need to leave to further your recovery and i can understand. I will miss seeing you around though, you have given so much input to discussions and support. I really think alot of you and i hope we could stay in touch from time to time. If you ever need to have support, you know you are always welcome.
Take care hun,
*hugs*

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 :)
Some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money.
They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with.
Some men just want to watch the world burn.
I will be sorry to see you go Katie :( :( but good luck in your recovery and the rest of your life xx

“I told him I was going to betray you, and betray Lyra, and he believed me because I was corrupt and full of wickedness; he looked so deep I felt sure he'd see the truth. But I lied too well. I was lying with every nerve and fiber and everything I'd ever done...I wanted him to find no good in me, and he didn't. There is none.”
