Yeah, I guess it depends on what you are expecting from it. I find it therapeutic just to be able to post and vent when I need... in the end we all need to deal with our issues on our own, or possibly without a support network... that we created.

One thing that bothers me a bit is that it seems some people are afraid to chirp in with advice or comments because they are afraid it may be deemed unsupportive (and yeah, there has been plenty debate on what is considered supportive). It is great to have safe environment for such exchanges though. I just wish some peeps participated more as they have things to say

I think sometimes there tends to be also encouragement... how to say it... of unwellness... some people can get really defensive when will power and other things are mentioned, or when somebody comes with bold statements of taking things into their hands and now they gonna rock it... and debates can quickly turn into "no we can't"...
