I don't have a particular ax to grind in this case; I'm finished therapy, "successfully" nah, nah, nah, nah, nah! and, yes, you are showing vulnerability in just having started (and stayed with) the thread. You're a formidable foe and can give as good as you get but, is that who you want to be all the time?

Many years ago (14-15) on a forum like this there was a woman whose posts inevitably set me off each time; I considered myself much smarter than she, had no trouble cutting her to ribbons "politely", etc. But one day, I had an awful thought; "what if she is right and you are wrong?" and I started trying to see things the way she did. It was just a "what if" (I didn't really believe she was "right" and I was "wrong") but it helped me a great deal with trying to learn to see another's point of view, to not be stuck with just my own.
