B-- we are friends outside of PC, please stop acting like you know anything about my friendship with LT, we have had many convos about things she does not share here.... I have every right to say what I say, as much as anyone else.

C-- I'm pretty sure I've mentioned the choice is hers, I'm also sure I've said everyone is different.... excuse me for seeing something as a stuck pattern that I'd like to see her emerge from, I didn't realize encouragement isn't welcome here.

D-- My T and my relationship is not for discussion in this thread. This is about LT, I've merely tried to reflect my own experience to show that everyone can do things differently.

E-- again, I've stated that there is no specific time line but I was merely trying to encourage her to take small steps to progress... so she isn't feeling stuck. I don't want to see her doing this over and over for years and years. It's not a bad thing to try and just have faith in your T sometimes and see how things are still ok.
If you look up in the thread, you'll see that I was commenting on your response to Waterloo, not LT. I think it's great that people bring different points of view to the forum, yours included. I was mostly pointing out that your prescriptive way of giving feedback can be a little misguided sometimes. It's one thing to say, "In my experience..." and quite another to say "I would encourage you to do X" when somebody makes a comment and you have no sense of the backstory or how their therapy works.

This is just something I had noticed you doing on the forum over time, and I thought you might appreciate the feedback since you seem to be curious lately about how you come across to other people. But I see that I have touched a nerve and for that I apologize, so I am happy to not comment on this issue any further.
