Not to be rude, but she does sound like a bit of a train wreck. And the interesting thing about this is that your sites, and Flylady's site are so uplifting, you would think it would have rubbed off. Hey...I had to share this with you...I think you are brining me good Karma...moments after I posted my previous note to you, I got a call from a fancy/schmancy dog groomer out in L.A. who wants to place a big honkin' order with me. So thanks! LOL I think the best you can do is leave this alone, but maybe keep an eye on her from the distance. Not to be rude, but she does sound like a bit of a train wreck.

She started another FLYing group for grieving people last year, with our encouragement, but honestly, she is so negative that no one really wants to be around her, I dont think. I think she has now closed her group. She does have another one though, with people in it, that is somewhat active though. Really, we have done everything we could to help, she refuses to help herself. She needs a professional at this point.  She is way past Oprah or anything a non professional can do I think.

You seem a bit conflicted, as in...you wanted to be supportive, but it became too much. It sounds as if it was a little against your instincts to have to do what you did because you seem like such a warm and supportive person. You know what might be a fun idea? Help her to create her own blog: i.e., "Misery hates company"...this way she can try to attract like-minded folks and perhaps in the process she will help others? KB Hi Christina,

We have tried everything we could try to be her friend and support her and nothing was ever enough. My best girlfriend would call her a psychic vampire, she really could suck the life out of you. Funny thing is, out of our group of 200 people, not ONE soul has said a word (we sent out an email yesterday morning immediately after banning her), I have gotten 2 kudos emails, and our membership count is increasing. I think this was a tremendously good move, though a really hard one to make, and maybe it will knock the person in question to wherever place she must be to seek help. She needs it so badly.

This person you speak of in last post PDMIS definately needs professional help. It sounds to me as if she needs attention more than anything else. I hope she will find a way to move forward. Maybe she should watch Oprah. lol Hi,
