the essence of fear | dyin2live's Blog

Okay, I just posted a blog and it did not "post"...  ??

Anyway, I had said that I just read a story by RA that says he gave an interview about EP on Austin TV.  While I applaud his courage, at the same time his words have brought me great fear.  I am all for recruiting new members and being a support system for people who need us, but at the same time I feel a great trepidation at the idea that anyone that might know me or know part of my family IRL will get on here and figure out who I am. I need the anonymity of this site desperately.  I cannot be myself IRL; that is why I can do it here.  I have protected my own anonymity here to the point of bordering on paranoia.  Twice, I have deleted stories that I had written for fear they would be found out.  Many times I refrain from fully saying what is really on my mind for fear of someone finding out my deepest, darkest secrets.  I simply cannot chance anyone IRL figuring out who I am here.

I do respect RA, as I always have--please do not take this as an attack on him or his actions because that is not what this is.  I am just very, very fearful.

Because of my fears, I am sorry my friends but I will be deleting all pictures of myself or my family in the next two minutes.  I hope you all can understand.
