If you find it's dull, post something.

And perhaps it isn't the limelight we're seeking. Maybe we post a lot because this is the first time we felt like we've been able to talk about our illness in a supportive environment.

I may find you yet interesting.

Your posting are okay, not flooding the forum overly... it's tempting to post a lot when somewhere new.



To me worst kind of newbies are those that assume they know your story (because all bipolars are the same, right?) and jump on you with their "advice" right off, telling you how delusional you are because you are doing something out of the mainstream **** they ready about in bipolar for dummies or on wikipedia. They usually last few posts though and leave with "oh, I thought you were looking for help and support, but if you don't do the generic standard route, it's not place for me".
