Just wanted to post here about something. Sometimes when issues of controversy come up people get real upset and that leads to people feeling like they are no longer welcome.

I went through it myself those of you who have been here for any lenght of time know how my posts at times tends to get people in an uproar. I solved that situation by moving a majority of my experiences and therapy and personal opinions into the blogging area.

That was the best move I could have made. I was and am able to post what I want as long as I follow the blogging rules. With my information, experiences and personal opinions located in my blog those that are triggered by it do not have to have it in their faces. Yes here on the public boards they have an option to not read posts that upset them but for many reasons that protection method does not always get carried through.

The one thing that I have noticed by way of the numbers of how many times my blogging pages have been opened is that people do want to hear about my opinions and information that I blog about. In fact I get more questions and pms and favorable responses to my blog then I ever did when I was posting that same information and opinions here on the public boards.

So for those that went through, are going through or will possibly go through the stress of being brave and strong enough to post their personal opinions and so on and end up in a mess of controversy about their posts. please keep in mind the blogs area is a great solution. there you can be yourself without the controversy effects while people get used to you being more vocal.
