I haven't been around much on this site lately and have mostly stopped posting because my therapy is going well 90% of the time and because last year I had to change my username because some people seemed hell bent on digging up my old threads and contradicting me. Nothing is static, people especially change when they are in therapy and doing work on themselves. I have to say most of the feedback I have gotten here has been amazing, constructive and supportive but occasionally people will not see eye to eye or get the point you are making. It's like real life sometimes you got to accept the fact that everybody is different.
I remember opening a thread once that was related to my therapy and the mods moved it to another department which upset me and felt personal as I have seen many other threads not related to therapy left here. I guess the point I am trying to make is that everybody gets something from the board if you allow support or advice, 99% of people are genuinely trying to help others, I have only encountered one or two trolls whose intention was to make others look bad and making themselves put to be right all of the time.
Sometimes people get triggered and react and then regret reacting but it's all learning. There is lots you can learn about yourself and others by our interactions with each other.
Also sometimes I posy because I need to vent and perhaps it would be better to journal in those occasions of I will post and just need to ask others opinions about something and not reply to the answers. I apologise for that because people go to a lit of trouble to reply and I always appreciate the effort.
