Thank you Lynn, but that was my point, there is no neat box. But there are a lot of neat ideas here and some good suggestions. And an opportunity for members to state some of what goes into the way they post, look at posting, and try to accomplish that may be of a supportive nature to both the op and the person posting to that op.
I honestly don't see anything wrong with the OP's question. I actually admire him for even asking instead of just assuming his way of posting was the best way of posting and participating in PC.
Your a good poster Lynn and it comes natuarally to you and you don't have the personal issues that others have, maybe that is what makes it easier for you in some ways. But for some (and I did look up Ygre23's issues) it may just be more of an effort and this thread can put them at ease in some way, it did put me at ease.
And it also allowed me to get to know Ygre23 better, and you know what, I like him and I have seen a good side of him that just wants to be a better member. And I am very impressed that he has admitted some errors he has made.
Personally, I like to see what others think about how they use PC and what it means to them or even someone who has been here longer and might learn a new approach that may help him/her utalize PC better and maybe look at it differently. I think this is a good thread to anyone new or fairly new or even members who have never really been validated somehow here at PC. I would have liked to have read it when I came here, I like reading it now. Sometimes a simple question in a thread can be like an open door for an opportunity to get to know other members better and also learn some things. And I really liked how Ygre23 talked to each poster and considered their input. And to me that is being a good host and a good example of how to socialize within a group by including everyone in that group.
And actually, that is what a good therapist would do because that is good therapy.
