Gus,
Hope you are doing well. I can relate to your story, I am in AA too. Take care of yourself.

Peace,
Phillip

Gus, I have only been open about my csa for a few months and just started on this site last week. I have posted a few time ( I think you responded to me ) but I guess I just feel that I am not worthy of trying to help others. Sorry I felt that way but hope others who are more along with there problems can help you and me also. Hang in there.

Howdy Gus,

Thanks for letting us know how you feel:

I figured since you've been around on MS for 5 years, you were a pro at this. I always appreciate reading what you've got to say, it's a big part of what I come here for-to hear what other men have to offer.

Namaste,

Hey gus,
Long time no speaky between us. I get that feeling sometimes too. We as a group tend to be paranoid about things when we need something and it isn't coming. I Don't think you've done anything wrong I've never seen anything bad about you on here so no worries man.
Thanks for speaking up I never think to do that when I'm hurting and feel rejected by the site, it's a good reminder.

Hey gus, I read a lot of your posts and even more you responses to others posts. I think very highly of your responses and I wish I was as confident in what have to say as you are. many times I will write responses and not send them because of my own self doubt. I know how you feel though, sometimes I will go on chat and right after I get on a bunch of guys will say something like; its getting late i'm going to turn in and sign off. I know its a coincidence but I feel that it is due to me or that there is some secret club here that I am not a part of. I admire you putting it out there as bluntly as you did, that is something I am not good at but I am trying to push myself more to be like that. Thanks for the good example.

Gus,

Got your back bro!!!
Right here with ya.

Gus I realize this is a little late, but better than never.

I appreciated you always being there for me in chat. Thank you for that.

You too deserve that same compassion and respect.

I'm happy to be here for you and help you bud.

Charlie.

Gus,
If you ever read this, I believe I am your cousin. My family has been looking for you since your mother passed away. We were never given any information where you went, and we could not find you. I would love to speak to you. - wendy Bierer-truzerls. My dad was Dale(Herk), and your mother was Beth
