I'm sorry that you are not interested. Again, though, the written record speaks for itself. This is what I said:
Quote:
Many or most of us participating on PsychCentral have a history of trauma and/or mental health issues, and experience and knowledge about how to discuss differing opinions -- and disrespecting certain opinions, even -- without disrespecting others is something I know that I have lacked. There really aren't any classes anywhere about that, which I have found.

The classes Luvyrself referred to were not about the topic I had described, in the way that I understood what I had described. Undoubtedly Luvyrself understood it differently, from within her perspective and experience.
Nevertheless, when she responded to my questions with a contradiction of an assertion that I had made -- with the qualifier "which I have found", it felt like a slap in the face. Could I have taken a step back, analyzed it this way at the time, and gone forward? Perhaps. Why didn't I do that? All questions that I think could be up for discussion, if anybody was interested in such a discussion.
