Rain, rain, rain. It's good, we sure need plenty of it. Mr. Magnificent Redwood Tree outside of my kitchen window is drinking the rain up; he needs moisture and damp weather.
So. I am absolutely fine with anyone posting on this thread or on this board (the Bipolar Disorder board) who wants to post here. I'm happy to have all of us here, supporting each other, exchanging info, having fun, all of it. I also would ideally like to have more members who have been diagnosed with BD on this board and live with BD day in, day out. We've had some people here with bipolar disorder who are no longer active, which is very unfortunate. A few who are semi-involved drop by now and then and it's always wonderful to see them, but their visits are rare.
That the Personality Disorder board is not more active is really unfortunate. I have seen people try to pick up the pace, but very few respond. I suspect most of that is because of the fear of "the label." Heartbreaking. Why, why hasn't such ignorance changed by this time, 3 days from 2023? This isn't 1965. It's unforgivable that the APA hasn't made a supreme effort to change it. People are fighting stigma - what is the APA doing to fight it? They have the power, ultimately.
Anyway, all that aside, I'm thinking about creating a post that's taking shape in my mind. I'm not yet sure how to organize my ideas.
