Sorry if I was harsh, it was a stressful day.
> What are the general e-manners associated with posting? If mutliple people respond to a post, is it more polite to return post to each individually?
Don't feel you have to answer everybody, but if
someone really helps, it is nice to say thank you.
>
> Do some people only know you are posting to them if you name them in the title?I don't use this feature, instead i leave a little of the post I am responding to in my post.
I think many people read everything.>
> If someone provides you with valuable information, is a return post expected to say that the information is appreciated?That would be nice.
>
> What can someone, like myself, do to make a contribution to PB and help others?Ask a question, give an opinion, tell what it is like to be on whatever med, ask for help, give support. When someone posts about their situation or how they feel and you can relate, post about this. People need to hear this, often people with mental conditions don't get validation for their feelings. We all need to feel someone understands
how me feel.

> I have received some negative feedback and I am looking for ways to add value to this forum, which I consider a great site, awesome! Thank you all for the help you have given me.Sorry for being so harsh !
