I have found this forum tremendously psychologically helpful, especially in the early days when I felt in a vacuum with everything that was going on with T1, and panicked about what was happening. Coming here helped me to gain some perspective and understand what was happening. Advice from this forum has also helped me make good decisions (it was stopdog, over 18 months ago who suggested I went on a break from T1 and tried out another - turns out to have been a lifechanging positive decision for me)
There are times when I feel miffed or put out by a response or a mod's decision, and sometimes it helps me to take a couple of days off but there are far more pros than cons for me at the moment.
