Thanks for the posts...
As for the new moniker, it's a ancestral name (father's side) from the Dumas family of writers. -gunna adopt it (with my Hebrew name, which means born in April), probably within the next couple of years. My surname at the present time, given at birth, is too tied-in with "the mental health system" and health care workers with good intentions but bad judgement calls!
What I mean is that sometimes a person needs to reinvent themselves, not necessary redefine, themselves. -all numbers stay the same, like Social Security, IDs, etc. Only the letters that compose the name will change.
You all are actually the first group I'm using it with. My personal email address is rndumas at msn dot com. -feel free to drop in with a greeting from time-to-time.
Robert "Dumas" Mogill

Thank you. -read, reflected, replied, and applied to my own life some of your current issues/woes.
And, thank you for being a catalyst for that... It's good to be back in this supportive forum. It was missed. But, sometimes my illness forces withdrawals from social situations as not to become "publicly symptomatic." Such is an example of "damage control" as expressed in a recent post regarding people who are in denial of issues. Alcoholism, depression, and other maladies that effect others close to them.
Hey, we are all in this together. That is what makes you all have instrinsic value to my recovery. Hopefully, I return the favor, on occasion
That's not only the cake, but the icing, too.
Dumas.
