Just wanted to thank you for being so kind and understanding with regards to my horrible predicament. I think that maybe people like you should get all your facts straight before being so 'blunt' as you put it.
I suffer from chronic manic depression and clinical depression, I have chronic fatigue syndrome and ive just found out that i've been trying to deal with all this while suffering from chronic post natal depression. Having my horse was fabulous therapy for helping with my depression so selling him as been twice as hard.
My illness has meant that things have been incredibly hard to deal with so I'm sorry that i was stupid enough to trust someone who i thought was genuine and i'm sorry that i didn't find the time amongst all the c*** that I'm trying to deal with to make time to do the 2 1/2 hour round trip, not including the time spent actually with my horse, regularly. But thank you for pointing it out and thank you for making me more upset, if that's at all possible.
As for taking the advice that i have received on here, i have spent hours chasing up leads and i'm hoping that there is someone on here, that i have had a long chat with, that unlike you, has taken the time to help me not to criticise me. I'm very hopeful that he will be very shortly out of his situation and moved to the girl on here that has been tremendous.
I'm very sorry that after the birth of my son i became too ill to go back to work and to therefore take my horse back and i'm very sorry that it has taken so long to sort, but considering it has been going on so long and he still ended up in a nightmare situation i apologise if this time i'm being even more cautious.
Obviously people like you aren't on here to offer people advice, just to make people feel even more awful and guilty than they already do. I love my horse more than life itself and selling him has been an extremely stressful process anyway without thoughtless people like you.
So once again thank you and i'm sorry that i'm not more perfect like you obviously are, I'll make sure to tell my psychiatrist that i've been informed that there are even more faults to me than we originally thought.
Thank you what a star!

Sorry to hear you've had a hard time recently but really, try not to worry what people say on an open forum. Noone knows you or your situation - they only know what you write down. If someone says something upsetting, well it's only a random person and just their opinion. If it really upsets you, just send them a PM. Most people on here just want to help out and give sensible advice - noone here wishes you or your horse any illwill, they are just hoping for a good outcome.
 
Just ignore them, Hun. You're doing the best you can for yourself, your horse, your little boy and your situation.
Take care and hope everything works out for the best.
 
You came on here asking for help and advice, it was given, I guess from your comments you did not like what was said - that's the real world I am afraid
 
Perhaps someone in your 'sensitive' condition shouldn't post on a public forum then

I also don't appreciate you posting a public rant directed a me

If you had a problem with what I wrote you should have:
a) Ignored it - would have been the most grown up option
or,
b) PM'd me
 
Actually, having just reread the thread in question, IceStationZebra posted several of the things I was thinking!

You asked a question on a open forum, you have to be able to understand that people have differing opinions, and just because you are ill doesn't mean that people will agree with you.

And also, surely this should be private, rather than in what I consider to be quite a nasty post. If you can't take it, don't dish it out.
 
I don't think ISZ said anything spiteful, she was just being honest. Putting your problems aside the horse is your responsibility.
 
I'm really sorry that you are having such a tough time, sounds as though you have an awful lot on your plate

but none of it is Icestationzebras fault?!

Not sure what you hoped to achieve by posting such an unfair and uncalled for tirade against someone who was simply offering their opinion on a matter that you asked for people's thoughts on?

not read it all. but bear in mind folks that if OP is not at her best shall we say, her view and response is likely to be different to what she might normally post.

ISZ i hope you're ok.

p.s. sorry for lack of caps, left arm not working too well.
 
Thank you to everyone that has given me support and as for a public rant, as you call it, it was ok for you to criticise me and my care of my horse, so as you say if you can't take it then don't deal it.
And as for all that agree with ISZ maybe you are right maybe i should have put my horse before caring for my baby but i feel that I did the best i could.
If the world wasn't full of lying, cheating, spiteful, selfish people then i would never have had the problems in the first place and my horse, as promised, would have been living the life of Riley til he died of very old age.
But I guess you live and learn.
And i have no problem with people having opinions i just don't see what is gained by kicking a person when they are down and are obviously having a hard time.
 
Cowboy1 when I suggested you PM me I meant that it would have been a better alternative to this post. I did not mean it as an invitation for you to send me this!

"Actually someone in my 'sensitive condition' shouldn't have to deal with thoughtless spiteful people like you.
You sarcastic ...
Do you know what ...you aren't worth it.
And as for adding a 'crazy smiley' to your reply to my post, what a sad nasty person you are, I truely believe in karma and i swear to god I can't wait to see what comes your way"

HOW DARE YOU!

Why don't you go away and get the help you clearly need. If you contact me again I shall report you to admin.
 
HOW DARE I? What?
You said to private message you so rather than put another post on here in response to what you said i thought i'd pm you but obviously you did want it done in public, trust me i won't be pming you ever again. and i am getting the help that i clearly need. Nice to know you care! What about you, are you getting any help?
And what exactly did i say that was so offensive to you? I'm not the one publicly calling you crazy, am I?
And what exactly will you report me for? having post natal depression? I didn't realise that people with mental illness weren't welcome.
 
I have to say cowboy1 - I think you are being unnecessarily unpleasant. I understand that you are not well - but a personal attack like this is not really justified based on the original answer to your post.

Given you illness and upset you might be better taking a step away from the computer and giving yourself some time to think before you post again.

I wish you the best of luck in sorting out the issues with your horse - you have been given lots of very sensible advice.
 
Well i apologise to anyone that i've upset but after the time i've had recently someone talking about me and adding a 'crazy smiley' was just the final straw, maybe i did over react to the initial post but that smiley was just unnecessary and very hurtful. I do appreciate all the advice i've been given and have used a lot of it. I'm just fed up with being made to feel guilty. If i had sold my horse would i have still been criticised for nor checking on it regularly?
As i keep saying i'm doing the best that i can. So once again sorry for being me and sorry for getting upset at being called crazy.

Erm when did anyone say you should put the care of your horse before that of your kid?

the crazy smiley, to me says "errr..." not "you are crazy".

I'm sorry you have so many chronic problems but ISZ isnt known for being nasty and spiteful, just honest.
