wow!
completely new to this thread and have had a bit drink. my thoughts:
people should be able to post on a wide0scal;e of emotions, i don't think everything on this board should be "supportive," good argumentation leads some place;
i haven't read the aforementioned PB thread, but can we cut some people some slack? when i found a somewhat proper cocktail, i couldn't hard-sell it enough to anyone! mistakes lead to wisdom...
re: talk therapy and meds...for 5 years i was strictly anti-med and pro talk-therapy. the meds have done for me than CBT, counselling, psychoanaylsis, therapy, what-have-you...jeez prozac works better than pot for me, who'd have thought...but everyone's different...
because jay is a counselor himself he may have a "vested interest: or whatever someone posted, but don't you yourself have an agenda regarding something, whether it be politics, religion, "family values," etc? everyone's got vested interests and a right to post the, it just helps to keep things even by mentioning BY THE WAY , [vested interest inserted here]...
i don't think ANYONE has been irresponsible. i respect Elizabeth for being strong in her belifes; o don't think she ought to take "civility" into her own hands on thos board, but this is a thread i've enjoyed, and i look forward to more discussion and free speech, particularly because of my own personal experience (i visit pusher-man to get my meds and no longer trust counselling as a whole, a 18-degree turn-around...choosing a therapist is sucj a shot-in-the-dark...would you choose a best friend from the yellow pages, or based on recommendation or referral by your insurance co? thot not.)
sorry if disjointed.
these are my thoughts on a once-over read.
