I just wanted to add that I quickly looked through the first 20 pages of threads on the psychotherapy forum and outside of the couch's threads (which I think get locked after so many posts) only three have been locked. Two of them were involving someone whose posts were questioned and not believed to be real and the reason for locking was because of concern of hurting the original poster. That's A LOT of threads where opinions or whatever were allowed to be shared. It's not nearly as dire as you think. LOL.
