I've name changed for this but I nc frequently so no one would really recognise me anyway so it's neither here nor there!
Ive been off and on mumsnet for a couple of years, it was a place to get interaction and "talk" with the outside world when I was at my lowest, I have asd and was deeply depressed and basically never went outdoors. So i was constantly scrolling through seeing what people were doing, getting that interaction that i wasn't getting in the real world. It was a godsend and I didn't feel as cut off as I did, Some mn have pulled me out of thr darkest times I've had and made me laugh so much with some of the ridiculous threads!
I'm a lot better now, I go outside, I interact with the outside world but still find myself scrolling through sometimes rather then doing something difficult, so I'm going full cold turkey to basicallt force myself into these situations! So I will be sitting looking at a post of what someone ate at a cafe rather then going myself 
So going to get rid of the online addiction!
Not so much an epic flounce, but a thank you for anyone who's posts I read, cried and laughed at for helping me get back into the real world and a goodbye as now I'm going there full time! Wish me luck!
