Yenny, I am sending you the biggest hugs. Good luck with your counselor tomorrow. I hope you can find some healing in therapy. A good therapist can be a life saver in tough times.
Something really stuck out to me when reading what you wrote about all of your successes yet you feel like a fraud. It might help to read about “imposter syndrome.” Hopefully, it will help you to feel not so alone. Many people feel just like you do.
Big hugs.
Thanks @House Cat! I'll definitely google imposter syndrome, thank you. I'm sure that I'm not alone and the glass half full way to look at it would be "fake it til you make it", but somehow, I make myself physically ill sometimes, worrying about not being able to do something (facilitating a meeting, managing a youth group event, etc.) Definitely something a good counselor can help me with!
Yenny I adore you and I am glad you are able to share here and it is a catharsis of sorts for you. Sending you big hugs and much love and by the way WOWzer on your new setting. I have to say it is so much better than the original setting. Your initial vision was spot on my dear! And I am sorry I didn't see that right away when you shared pics with me. I agree completely this is heads and heels above the original!!!
You are a kind generous warm and wonderful strong woman and know how many here care about you and know we are here to listen and do whatever else we can. Life is challenging and life is hard. No doubt about it. (((HUGS))).

Missy, I adore you and almost feel like you gave me a physical hug with your kind words. Thanks for the Bertie love! You were also one who helped guide me to the decision to have her redone and I'm grateful and so glad that you did! Yup, life is hard and we have to learn to weather the ups and downs with grace and aplomb! I'm still working on that, for sure! But this thread has really been tremendously helpful, so thanks for starting it!
