Hi Dr. Bob. I wanted to add something. I think it's a sad world where "junkie" is used as an insult. I flinch whenever I hear someone use a rude nickname for a mental illness -- like "junkie" or "psycho" -- as an insult.

> We're all better at some things than others. Please be supportive.

Some of us are apparently better at being supportive than others. This isn't a question of being supportive ("cheetah" didn't come here asking for support, s/he came here to start a flame war) -- it's a question of avoiding being actively rude.

As always, just IMO.
