These things all contribute to the mindstate and developmental level that probably occurs in posting on threads, or the "triggering."

I suggest breaking the forum into something like the following:
New to therapy
Advanced in therapy
Young people in therapy
Seniors in therapy
Trauma therapy

You could even have CBT versus psychodynamic, since that seems to be an issue as well...

This lets people decide better where they fit and avoid other areas..

Now someone will say, just don't read what is here. Well, when I see a title of a post, I don't know who or what circumstances it is posted under. This way I would at least head to the areas of "interest." Others might gravitate to all topics and thats fine too.
Much of the benefit of group therapy is in meeting people whose issues are different from you own.
