Coming to appreciate Babble even more

Posted by gardenergirl on March 18, 2005, at 23:22:56

Let's just say I've seen evidence that efforts to learn and practice civility do pay off. I definitely feel that this site is a pleasant place to hang out. And I definitely feel like it's a Cheers-esque environement "where everybody knows [my screen] name". That's a very good feeling.

And I thank Dr. Bob and the wonderful Babblers for that.

Warmly,
gg

 

Yup....the enviro is friendly...people sweet...:) (nm)

I agree. Such a close-knit community of kind, compassionate, knowledgeable, talented and humorous people. You are so right - it is a nice, pleasant place to hang out.

Thanks for sharing that GG.

All the best to you.

And that is because of the wonderful posters here, of course :-)

It does feel like coming home.
And people care.
And I really don't know what I would have done without it.
Really.
Thanks everyone.

I don't think I could say enough about what this site has done for my sense of self esteem. I've met so many wonderful people here and it's opened up my world literally as I've been able to meet a couple of members in person.
Support during difficult times, ongoing sensible advice about treatment options - heck, just having a place to talk about reading! It's a real treasure for me.

I'm so jealous about you meeting folks in person. I tried to arrange one, but it has fallen through. In fact, it would have been this week. :(

But I agree with your thoughts about Babble. In spite of the occasional strife, it's a good thing (Martha not intended)

I just have to add to this thread...All of you are amazing. when things are at the utmost worst, there seems to always be someone there. I know I am an exhausting and frustating person, and I just can't believe that people put up with me. so thank you, to all that have! some of my experiences on babble have shocked me, and have made a horrible day/moment breathable, when I was feeling so alone and lost. suddenly someone pops out of nowehere who understands whats going on and helps you through. I see all the amazing support that goes around the boards and its just so cool. Wow... im just touched by everyone who has been there for me, and I just want to make sure people know how appretiated it is. I don't know what I would have done the last month without this place.

Sorry Im weapy today, not usually a mushy person

I just wanted to add to my previous comments. I stumbled across Babble when I was going through a really bad time, both physically and emotionally. I am glad I had the opportunity to post here, and to learn from the knowledgeable, compassionate and kind people of Babble. It was a wonderful experience for me, and for that I am truly grateful.

Dr. Bob, you should be very proud of what you have created here. Babble is more than just a message board. It is a community of kind, giving, intelligent, caring and talented people who give of themselves by sharing their knowledge and experiences to help others in need. It is a safe haven for those who may be experiencing the depths of despair, their darkest hour or complete and utter confusion and fear over alarming side effects to a medication.

So, thank you Dr. Bob and thanks to all the other Babblers who took the time to respond to my questions and to provide me with reassurance when I needed it.
