...why would I post in the bipolar forum if I don't have bipolar?
Why would someone post in the AvPD forum is they don't have AvPD?

If you asked me a question on the AvPD forum how could I answer you?
I don't have:-
Primary Dx: C-PTSD and Severe Chronic Treatment Resistant Major Depressive Disorder
Secondary Dx: Generalized Anxiety Disorder with mild Agoraphobia.


So you might feel ignored however if we happen to answer your question according to our PD thereis good chance that you might snap back or ignore us in return bc what we had to say isn't in keeping with your dx. See it's a balance thing for us where if we're talking to an Avie we understand them making us a little more confident in replying, plus we can back up our answers bc we share similar headspaces and experiences.

If I answered one of your question on some other PD forum and you wanted more information, I'm going to look stupid and therefore I will be pulled apart emotionally by Avie.
You might not snap back at us, but we don't know that bc we're talking from different PD perspectives.


Thanks for replying Seesaw.
