Another cut.

I know I said I was done making cuts for a while, but apparently, "a while" isn't very long right now. Here's the deal:

I am in a very awkward place in my life to say the least, and I have a lot of things to think about and worry about and deal with. There is just a lot going on, and I can't deal very well with a lot of stuff - and livejournal has been stressing me out a bit lately. Things I would normally just shrug off are hurting my feelings or causing me stress, and I just don't need it. Right now, what I need is to be surrounded by - and ONLY surrounded by - a few more select people. It's hard to explain how I am deciding to make this cut, but suffice it to say that I need to be "with" people who can understand what I am going through, and who I trust to help me get through it.

Most of the rest of you, I do care about you, and I have enjoyed having you on my list, and I hate to cut you. Actually, it was a really hard decision to make, and I do plan to add most of you back once I am doing better. So I really hope that no one gets upset, hurt, or offended. This is just what I need to do right now to take care of myself.

If I cut you, you are welcome to leave me on your list for when I am ready to start adding people back.

Also, this is my "amnesty post."

Whether I cut you or not, if you feel any desire for any reason to drop me, I won't ask any questions, and I won't be upset. I would actually honestly prefer that you NOT give me a reason, because I just can't cope with that right now. Just leave me a comment, if you would, letting me know you're cutting me.

I hope you'll all understand that this cut is not about any of you. It really is about me, because I really am not feeling like I can deal with a whole lot right now.

Thanks.

First of all, I would like to say whatever it is you are going through, you will get by with help from your close friends, and second, not being sure of what you are going through all I have to say is, maybe cutting the friends may not be the answer, but do what you have to do and hopefully you will be happier in the future and you will see that it's your friends who will help you get through whatever it is.
Don't give up and keep your chin up.
