i've been a member of pc for a while. an observation of members's posts is that there are an incredible number of really knowledgeable/intelligent ppl here. i wonder if the knowledge we seek to improve ourselves has given us a gift of self understanding of life and how it all works through therapy. sometimes i have to fight my "demons" but by using therapy as a means of "how one ticks" i have acquired more understanding and skills/tools to improve my own outlook and understanding about life in general. i also "see" this in many posts even if they are struggling sometimes too. we are "forced" to reflect on how to fix things.
so in many ways, speaking for myself, my dx has given me a gift because i've had to learn things i may never have problem solved had i not had these challenges in life. any thoughts on this? what say you? __________________ Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all. Do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been able to reach. Check your road and the nature of your battle. The world you desired can be won. It exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours..~Ayn Rand |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
