Hello Roo

Hope you find some comfort and help here.

Read through the successes catagory so you get the idea that it is all overcomeable with help and some effort.

Hi Roo,

Welcome to the site. Hopefully you will start to see that you can get some help. I have this fear as well and have just started to 'overcome' it. I use this word with some reluctance because I'm sure it's only the beginning. But it's a start. Have a look for my posting under the Success stories category. Sometimes it just helps to know you are not alone.
