Jmayfair Don't worry about how much you have to say. It's what's natural. I can completely relate, though. I often find myself padding a post because I feel it doesn't have quite enough. Of course, reading more than posting is common, especially when getting to know the rest of us.
Ok, what else can I add?
Yeah, confidence suffered for me, too when ECT did a number on my academic mind, the only thing about myself I valued. However, we have value because we are individuals in a community. You are part of us. Have confidence in that.
