Dear God could I not fathom NOT having this site my first few days here. That had to have been brutal. It looks like things are starting to get back to normal though, but it's our job to let these new guys understand that part of quitting is having a backup plan just in case the best laid plans go awry. Have some numbers. Have multiple avenues to contact people here (facebook, telephone numbers, apps, etc). Basically, don't rest on your laurels. Always be striving to be quit.
Reminds me of what it was like when I first stumbled in. Jesus, I was desperate and scared. Sure, I'd stopped a dozen times before, but in the back of my mind I always knew that a cave waited for me at the end of that glittery, shiny rainbow.
Here, I was looking down the barrel of "forever" and nothing had seemed so daunting. Four months later I know better, and perhaps our buddy SpaceLord does, too. He might be reading and lurking daily, he might see every word, every nugget of wisdom that is posted on this site, but I doubt that he has what I have. What many of us have. It's a shame, because it's completely free of charge, and yet it's worth twice its weight in gold.
