I'm still lost in terms of finding my way around this Forum. It is going to make me mad (at myself) if it continues.

I was going to respond to the recent posts about sympathy and empathy. I do agree we are on the same page but it seems that we need to have specific examples of each (anger and/or responding to someone's absorption with depression). So we can share ideas about helping someone with both of those emotions...

Back to my frustration with this Forum...I read the discussion of empathy and sympathy, wanted to make a brief comment, but then I couldn't find my way back to that recent discussion. Then I stumbled on the Anger and Aggression thread and decided post a comment here. Is there a simple way to understand this? _Sky has made several efforts to help me...but then I'm not posting for a few days and I get lost again. Now share with us all what you think would be good empathic responses to me in this situation? and sympathy responses?

Now I have two worries: What if I can't find my way back here to see your thoughtful responses? The second worry is that I might get into a disagreement with my own ideas when I'm quoted by _Sky.
