A little confirmation, some acknowledgement by the profession, I suppose. An opportunity to discuss these issues in a forum where psychiatrists, psychologists and therapists are discussing their own issues, which I expect could only be obtained by invitation and which, after that all-knowing-lesser-god comment, I'm probably not likely to get. I suppose I've said my piece. If youall would prefer that I leave the forum at this point, I will. As someone pointed out, my issues don't exactly correspond to the nature and intentions of psychcentral, anyway.

As far as the letter goes, it might as well have plunged into a black hole for what good it will do, though I have more faith in the democratic minority office of the house than the house as a whole. Oops. That had political overtones, didn't it?
