Skewed. It's mainly us chronics who hide out here. I like that there are places like these where one is encouraged to move on with life, even when life is harsh and when things will never be all better.

I do think it might just scared a newly diagnosed person a tad, since most who get all better don't stick around (I know some do but most do not). Depending on the diagnosis it might paint a too grim picture.

I do think being understood is the most important thing though, and a person is quite likely to get at least one person who understands over here.
