(((((((((Sharon)))))))))) I don't think asking for a name change is wrong, sometimes we need to move on from our old usernames, I personally changed my username to John from biggestfoot a while ago, it was a big step of me because it symbolized me coming out of hiding about what happened to me and on this website showing everyone "this is who I am". For me I found it quite healing and would never want me username changed back now, just do it when the time is right for you

Hi Sharon;

Actually I agee with John ( I NEVER said such a thing) I understand the need to update our identities as we grow. For whatever reason it really throws me for a loop when folks change pictures and never mind the names. I truly wish we had a little thread somewhere where folks could announce they are changing their identities around. Sometimes it takes me a few days to figure out what happened and for those folks I don't know very well I'm sure there have been some who just 'vanished' from my radar without me even knowing.

very disorienting, esp with PTSD, dissociation, med side effects etc.

oh look, a bunny

John....I think il leave the name change untill im 100% sure..it is a big decision.

Hi hun....Ive decided i started here with angel123 and maybe i will stick with it, i totaly understand where you are coming from with the picture changing, it gets me sometimes as well...

I hope you are doing ok today, sending you some hugs :hug: if ok.

This is really a message for SeckunClass - am thinking of changing my user name but thought should seek your views first. Am assuming you are much in favour since you suggested it in the first place. I would howver be much saddened if I were to disappear from your radar.

I would do it gradually sort of one letter at a time but am afraid this would be more difficult - what do you think.
