I can remember when I first found this site, how excited I was to be able to just be myself amongst good people who suffer with this anxiety like I do. Since then I have had to have open heart surgery, and I havent been able to be online as much as I wanted to be. For some reason, even trying to make friends online makes me nervous, but this site, and you great people made me feel welcome and a part of something. Now I find myself kinda in a depressed mode, and a little more anxious than normal because of the surgery. I know it is a normal part of my healing process, but I feel guilty that I havent been able to communicate with my new friends like I want to. To all of you out there, I apologize if I have been silent, but I have thought about you guys alot. I havent had a chance to talk to very many people yet, and I dont want to lose touch with any of my new friends, or jeopardize my chances of making many, many, many more friends. So I want ed to write this blog to tell you all I will be back very soon, as I am getting better everyday, and I probably wont be able to stop bothering all of ya.....LOL. What A great place this is to feel good about oneself...............Rob
