Yeah, board culture does indeed vary according to board. Different people do indeed have different theraputic windows, and I expect that what is theraputic changes over time depending on what else is going on in the persons life.
I have an ambivalent attachment to the board I used to post at. I don't want to get into too much of a discussion about that. Suffice it to say that I'm ambivalent about it. Sometimes I'll rail about it. Sometimes I'll feel sad about it. Sometimes I'll feel hurt about it. I'm presently blocked from posting there - but I don't wish to get into too much of a discussion about that.
I guess my attitude to it shows that it was challenging for me. Brought up a lot of stuff to do with my interpersonal style and past relationships and the like. Sometimes it exceeded my theraputic window, I guess. Othertimes... Well... Sometimes I feel like boards aren't challenging enough. I need to get a life, huh ;-) I do have a tendency to externalise ;-)
I've been looking for an online process group for a while now. Guess that there isn't one, really. I know there used to be online process groups, but there don't really seem to be anymore. I guess that the ones there are are likely to be entry restricted to people enrolled in a certain class or something like that. What do I mean by an online process group? Group therapy where the members fairly much run things, but where a moderator steps in to help process when things aren't going so well. Anyhoo... Boards really are what you make of them, I guess.
Thanks for your response. Means a lot. I know I'm probably sounding kinda cryptic. Hard to express sometimes. Poems are good for that, yeah.
