While I agree that everyone has their own way of dealing with their issues, some through therapy, some through co-ordination with their GP's and some strictly on their own, I don't believe that those members here who assume or suggest therapy are being unsupportive. They are posting from a belief that they have or an opinion that they have which is what a forum is all about.

Absolutely, there are plenty of members who cannot get therapy or pdocs because of their life situation. And there are plenty who don't believe that taking meds or seeking therapy is the way to heal themselves. That is absolutely okay and should be respected, just as those who seek help from professionals should also be respected for their way of trying to heal themselves.

On an internet forum, it's difficult not to assume some things in reading about each other. We do not have access to one's whole story and life situation. Even though assumptions can really be off, I believe that in this case, they are meant with good intentions and a way of offering some help.

Since we are a "support" site, continuing this conversation could become unsupportive towards the membership, so at this time, this thread will be closed.

Thank you all for your input.
Thanks for this!
