Yrgec23,
Your thought is not wasted effort, it is a good idea. I have to tell you that when I thought about starting my business and talked about it, I must have heard every reason under the sun why not to do it. Well, I decided to do it anyway and gee,
all those negetive people didn't really recall being negetive. LOL

I do ponder on that thought myself, so your not alone in that. As I struggle with my own issues, I find myself saying under my breath, this is just awful, how could this be, if I ever find my way through this I will make every effort to share that way.

Well, if someone who struggles with a disorder feels that it is not a lepracy or creepy crawly, what that means to me and that person has become aware that, no, to them it is not a lepracy. But to others if it was revealed it may be something to fear simply because we often fear the unknown. And as we can truely see on many levels, the only way to change that is to make an unknown "KNOWN".

When you presented a thread about posting, some people said that they don't post to others here that have issues they do not understand, I would think that to be evidence of a kind of FEAR. And to be honest Ygrec23, when I read your input and finally looked at your about me page, I don't know what your disorder really means to you. And what I have learned is in spite of what it is, I find your imput kind, thoughtful, and very supportive. And that tells me, "TRY" with my own issue.

I had posted in another thread today that presented the idea of thinking about overcoming a mental challenge as a positive and a valuable part of someone.
My own therapist battles depression, and it has been a plus because he can hear my struggle, truely sympathize with it and help guide me through it. So overcoming can be a lot more than someone with this and that it can become an asset and help to take an unknown to a known.
