just thinking about boos makes you a little sick to your stomach?
I am feeling that way right now!
It is a beautiful but depressing milestone for me!

Try to cling to the bad ones, and dissect the “good” ones.
Often, you’re longing for the primary activity (seeing friends, sitting on a beach, eating a nice meal) and not the secondary activity (using)
Thank you for commenting!
That was deep and may just do me some good!
Any time
I’m glad you found value in it.
