This is in no way a criticism of PC, but is about the reaction I have when I discover that threads have been deleted. I am wondering if I am the only one that feels a sense of loss or if it has something to do with my bipolar illness.
I think a big part of my reaction is that I am left to discover the deletion rather than being notified, whenever i might go looking for a post, or try to find one of my own, only to discover after some hunting that it must have been deleted.
Then I get this sinking feeling in my stomach. Sometimes I think irrationally that it has something to do with me. Maybe it does sometimes but maybe those times are rare or non-existent. If it were really bad I would get a notice from PC, so that is some comfort.
I don't really know why I get so wrapped up in thoughts about deleted threads.
