Locksley inspired me to revive my own thread and then I realized I'd left unanswered questions =X
So I'll kick it back off again with answering those I missed! And I invite you to ask me what you will

For me, the advantages are having someone to look up to, confide in, get advice from, and a symbol to help get a little boost when you need it. Disadvantages are they're very ...well, they don't often give you the answers you want to hear. And their time-frame is often "soon" (meaning probably in your lifetime lol). They can be frustrating when they feel you're good enough on your own but you feel like you need help. It's really just like any good mentorship relationship.

To be honest, I remember where I was and how I felt, but I don't remember when. I was at work, babysitting a computer system and thinking back on all my recent problems. Up until then I'd felt like I was treading water just to keep my nose above the surface. Forget trying to get anywhere! But at that point, I felt I was no longer just treading water. I was head and shoulders above it, deciding on the next place to go.
It was the start of my health problems I have now. I think it was the first point where I stopped letting life take me in its teeth and toss me as it willed. I was willing to stand up for myself, and fight for the things I needed.
