Situation like this happened to me and I went AWOL both online here and offline, it was a devastating moment for me because I never expected it! Life is somewhat funny!

I can relate to your ordeal and I must compliment that you are a strong lady! Many would have stayed so long in that state but you chose to come out of it afterwards...that's bravery right there!

You're right when you said that we need to invest in ourselves before pouring out the knowledge in practical aspects of it.
