Why do I come here?

I think Cheyenne's advice is absolutely right.
I was letting things said here get to me, so I took some time off. When you post and reply here everyday it can be hard to maintain your perspective, and because we are often more emotionally open here, with the atmosphere of relative anonymity than we might be in the rest of our lives, Lit can sometimes become an emotional echo chamber.
The important thing is to understand that you have the ultimate responsibility for your own feelings. It's up to you to decide how much to let anything said here bother you.
You're a wonderful, caring woman, and there are many people here who look forward to interacting with you. But take care of yourself, and if you need to take a little time off to do so, don't worry about it.
 
EE, you can blame it partly on me. Sometimes I can be slightly obnoxious, and when I get excited and start waving my arms around sometimes somebody gets a thumb in the eye. ;) Sorry.
