I felt the same about it. I have a very happy marriage, but found EP during a time I was growing and needing to spread my wings a bit. Some days it was overwhelmingly too much but the conversations were always the best! I wish I could remember everyone I connected with.

The old EP that didn’t have the drama bull shit was the best EP. When everyone would look forward to what those in our circle were writing. It became like the most hilarious chat group at times. It’s where I met some of the funniest people I’ve known. It’s where I realized I’m not alone in so many ways. It was therapeutic and cathartic. I miss it. I hope we can build something similar again.

@McToady well every day more of the old jump on the Similar Worlds bandwagon. I'm hoping the site will be what we make of it.
Something else just occurred to me. Most of us were in our working prime back then. How the hell did we manage to keep our jobs with the hours we put in?

It's made me so happy seeing so many familiar faces reuniting! Though the reason i'm back is because once again my life is a train wreck. EP saved me once. I found it at a low point but like Toady said I met some of the funniest motherfuckers ever. It gave me my life back but i've never forgot those who I was lucky to know.

@HotMessExpress102 I think one of the ways it helped me was by showing me just how many screwed up people there are out there. At the time I thought my life was in a hole, but holy shot there were some train wrecks. (My apologies if your train was wrecking at the time)
I went from feeling like I was in quicksand, to being the anchor for others. You can't be at rock bottom if you are helping people up and that changed my whole perspective on life in a hurry.

@Firegod74 I was not active then but I did make some good friends and had some help when I really needed it.

@Sinnerwithaheart the strange thing is, it gave me help I didn't even know I needed.

@Firegod74 Yes it did the same thing for me.
