Yw - I'd suggest also taking a breather from controversial- highly charged threads about the ESL topic and things like politics - just bs around in lighter threads or take a break from the CAF all together if need be. When i got too down about the state of politics in particular I started avoiding it for a while and just recently returned to the CAF again..still avoiding the politics thread but now there is this that gets me going. Anyway..look for the lighter things when you can - there s been enough heavy shit for a lot of us this past year especially.
I'll digress now so thread can get back on topic - don't feel like you have to respond but I do hope you consider my advice - for what it's worth of course. Cheers mate!
