Dear Gabbix,
On another board you officially lifted your ban... Larry Hoover was gracious enough to forward the rule about someone who bans someone from posting and then posts to that person, the ban is null and void and thus lifted.
That said... If we have a bad feeling, it doesn't have to drive our lives if we are adults. We get to exercise options not availble to us as kids.
Good to be back posting to you... I'm posting to let you know that once the door cracks open, knowledge can be our salvation. Maybe we didn't plan to solve life's puzzles with knowledge, doesn't mean we can't. Just because no one else warned us about me and what I know and how I got well and that anybody ever could get well, doesn't mean I'm wrong. What if someone is new at what I post and I'm not new at it? Am I still wrong?
I am a "broken record" about embracing adulthood as not being perilous. Adulthood brings with it vast new talents, skills, abilities, and attributes. Childhood is for discovery and practice, practice, practice, obey, obey, obey. Adulthood is for living a life, not guessing at what that might mean.
Give adulthood a chance. Feelings 90% to 100% of the time is re-enacting childhood if we are adults. Adults are most effective mixing thinking, feeling, and intention, not just having everything teeter on this or that feeling.
Kids can't do that, mix thinking with feeling and intention. Adults can. When we do, our lives begin to "work"! Eventually we get good at being adult. If we have a bad feeling, it doesn't have to drive our lives if we are adults. We get to exercise options not availble to us as kids.
Please keep the lines of comunication open. I will. I can.
Rod
PS: Change doesn't have to mean loss of self...
