We all go through the struggle-times, myself included. I think the difference for me is that I make this all about me, supporting me, helping me in my life...So if I'm feeling a bit down my posts will reflect that. I don't hold back at those times as that's when I need it most. You know?
In real life most people know next to nothing about us and even here, it would be a brave soul for someone to say I know G-dog - Nope, you don't. The closed book thing is ok, just share what you're willing to, as you do, and leave it at that. We'll fill in the blanks.
I'm glad you've found people to be helpful, myself included. That's what I'm here for. I'll spend more and more time supporting as my account grows larger.
Two days into my fourth year and still going strong. Lol.
Be well Paul.
