Not necessarily to Justy... just continuing the thread ok?

Well... there have been changes to the personality of this site since I've been here... only this year... but then, each new member adds their part as I did... but of late, there does tend to be more of quick responses of hurt and acting out..

As for the chat, It was me being attacked, and no, Ididn't threatened to leave the chat, I said I was sorry if I was hogging the chat (and I wasn't, as others verified.) and yes, there were at least 2 others who live on the edge and I admitted it wasn't the other person who was making me was to end it all over being attacked in chat! In fact (JON), you were also "on the edge" if I remember correctly because it was you who asked me to not talk that way because of your struggles too. And I agreed and apologized. As for breaking the rules????

The person who was "after" me was confronted, and then realized that it was their problem... and apologized. I think this was a good thing, in the end, though it was difficult during the process, for sure!

This site is no where near the meaness and rudeness and such as any other board I know. We generally have much respect for each other, and consideration abounds. Very seldom does one continue on and on and once confronted, not adapt and realize they need to change somewhat... very seldom. Which means, we are all trying.

Here we are: psychcentral! Nearly all of us are mentally un-well in some form or fashion, and we lay it out for others to see. If we wish to continue to share so openly, and feel safe about it, we need to step back and remember what it takes to keep that here... (me included) but it IS the fact that this is the best place to post when we are hurting... and it's up to each of us (IMHO, but I am only posting MY opinion remember) to do the best we can... feel comfortable to post our hurting, and try to help others in support when we can.

All in all, there isn't anything happening here that isn't customary with having a website of this nature, at least IMHO.
