Hi Jusy wondering if after you write a post do you ever feel like deleting it as you feel a little embarassed or exposed? I am not even sure if that is the right way to put it. Maybe it is just because I am new and am generally a person who tends to keep things to myself as it is as trust is big with me. But wondered I guess if anyone else ever posted something and then felt they may have shared too much. With that said i have not thought that about any post that i have read but wwe are always harder on ourselves when it comes to this stuff. I also feel i would not be being honest with you girls or with myself if i was to delete the post...and again if anyone else ever had to delete that they wrote i would let them know that that is ok to do and that it is best to do what ever makes you feel comfortable. Anyways just wondered basically if anyone here if did post and after had a feeling of feeling exposed ? I guess when sharing something on such a personal and times intimate level and , it is normal to feel exposed to some degree. I think it takes a lot of courage for things to be written here and i say hats off to all of you as I have read some great things and got comfort in seeing I am not alone. I totally just rambelled on hahahaha .

Thanks I want to try and keep the post there as took a lot to write it and post it...but will see. For now i will keep it as will feel bad if i delete it. But thanks for reassurance that it is ok if we delete post We really put a lot out there on the table to share hey and i guess this is one of those things too where it is so personal. I mean not everyone or everyday you will hear people talk about the pain in their ovaries, vagina, period, sex, etc.

I deleted lots of posts before I got the hang of this. Its best to write out what you want to say on a notepad on your computer and sit on it. Sometimes writing it out even if no one reads it... makes it better! Journaling is a great thing! Dealing with this disease is tricky and we need an outlet. Sometimes that outlet is here, and sometimes you realize after you post that it was just for you. It happens.

Thanks!! Good idea on just writing it out first to myself...I use to journal a lot and have not in a long time but it always helped!! Trying to be open can be hard at first when testing the waters

It's completely fine to delete a post if you want to. Totally understandable. I think that being on the internet helps you remain anonymous so you have the ability to talk about embarrassing subjects without people in your life knowing about it. It's all a matter of what you're comfortable with

Thanks as well I have so far decidced to keep the post up in the sex and coping thread...i figure it has been seen by people now so even if i was to delte most people here who are regulars may have seen it anyways lol. But yeah this is true about being anonymous here, although internet can be unsafe it can also be a safe outlet with some of the more embarassing things. Thanks

Even with my closest friend I have a hard time telling her stuff, that I can totally share with our ladies here! But yeah sometimes you write something and then realize you don't really feel that way or whatever and delete away!

yeah or write and share and then have a minor freak out session that you actually told someone something so personal .... But reassurance is comes when you get a response or read that others have too experienced the same thing..sad that others feel such pain as you do yourself but comfort in knowing that someone somewhere understands.
