What up with the babblemail you sent me? Are you trying to stir things up, or, or you just very lonely and need some attention??????

That's not the point. Even if you meant it for another poster, why are you sending emails indicating you have photos of them that have been circulated all over the internet, with their personal health history?

You are a very strange women, please do not correspond with me in any form, period.

This sounds like harrassment or some type of threat. Dr. Bob should be alerted to this. I can't believe the deputies have not responded. This is very serious and scary and is why I don't post much anymore.

Dr. Bob's policies should not allow for this type of behavior!

I agree, apparently it happens quite often. Too bad the member gets away with it.

No one should endure threats due to being a poster here of all places. And no one should be doing threating behavior because of their involvement here of all places. Dr. Bob can be of help if babblemail was involved. If email was involved contacting a person's ISP's abuse department might be an option. Even if sent in error to the wrong recepient just from your first post above this behavior seems improper.

I've never posted, or, exchanged pics with any member of this site. So, for you to babble mail me indicating you have pics of me, along with my personal name and past medical conditions, posted on the internet, is totally unacceptable behavior. As I previously mentioned, please refrain from any contact with myself, either by babble mail, or here on the posting site.

I come here to offer support to others and sometimes seek support when in need. Private emails regarding my personal matters does not help my recovery in any fashion.

I trust Dr. Bob will respond to this post with clarification of personal conduct for all babblers.

Regards,
Rocket

Rocket I would like to back you up on this issue. There was an incident a while back where I found out from an ex babbler that parts of an email that I had sent Phillipa were cut and sent to this now ex babbler. This ex babbler and I had been communicating at that time. Than she stopped emailing with me. Later she wrote me that she had stopped emailing me because of the personal material (emails from me to Phillpa) that had been sent to her. This material I had sent Phillipa was discrete and was not meant to be sent to the general public.
Phillpa sent me parts of emails on several occassions of babblers communications to her.Also sometimes matters of a personal nature.
No I did not save these personal emails from others. I did not want them or solicit them.
I don't know if this behavior violates any rules on this board but I find it morally offensive.
To become friends with people and open lines of communications with them and than distribute their private email confidences without their consent is a betrayal of their trust.
If there aren't any rules covering codes of behavior to protect people from being potentially embarressed by leaking private confidences there should be. Personally I find this behavior cruel and malicious. This forum has so many people who are suffering why would anyone want to do something that might add to someones already depressed state?

I hope no one is harrassing or getting harrassed. I hope it is a bad misunderstanding. Bye to you too

Why not post this so called harrassing babblemail on the internet for all to see? I never claimed to have any prior history of your medical history nor do I or ever have I had any pics of you. Other babblers posted their pics long before you joined this site. It was a fun thing to do kind of like Facebook only there we do not discuss med. Just joke around and have a lot of fun. Just like babble used to be. Phillipa

That is exactly what I'm talking about; posting personal information on the internet is not something I feel comfortable doing - period.


> I never claimed to have any prior history of your medical history nor do I or ever have I had any pics of you.

You're babble mail indicated otherwise. Perhaps you have forgotten, given the amount of correspondence you create.


> Other babblers posted their pics long before you joined this site. It was a fun thing to do kind of like Facebook only there we do not discuss med. Just joke around and have a lot of fun. Just like babble used to be. Phillipa

That is fine, if other babblers posted pics, none of my business. End of discussion.

Phillipa, what are you protecting yourself against or why do you feel the need to protect yourself? That kind of informs me something is not quite right? I keep Babble mails and emails and actually like having the archives because my memory is so bad but I cannot think of why I would need to keep a babble to "protect" myself.

After reading this I wonder what Phillipa actually saw when she posted she saw my real name on Facebook? Was it because she already new my real name? That would have been a simple explanation and not caused me to get all riled up which is not hard to do lately.

But what I was wanting to post here was another question altogether.

I guess I see this site and what it "needs" to do different than a lot of people.
Perhaps I am wrong. well there is no wrong and right, I don't think, just an opinion of what this site should be responsible for.

It is why I see this so much as a "real world" mental health community setting.

In my opinion or experience while one might feel more protected as far as building self esteem and self reliance, self worth .... being able to stand up for oneself and perhaps have a thicker skin when relying on others to defend us, do we need "deputies" or "administrators" to stand up for us?

By posting yourself your contempt about what you believe Phillipa did are you sticking up for yourself. By doing so are you allowing others to make more informed decisions as to their interactions with her or anyone( I don't want to pick on one person here). Are we not able to "police" this site ourselves if only by not addressing posts by those that have proven to us they are not trustworthy or other reasons we might have? I just truly believe that there is much more to be gained by dealing with these issues ourselves, and I mean as a community of equals, than by entrusting what is "good" and/or "right" (I am not good with words sorry) to some "administrator" and/or his "deputies". I think this is a chance to try out our self reliance without the possible repercussions that could come in the "real world".

I understand this is just my opinion and perhaps because of my own life's experiences I harsh one at that.

I am not advocating that I am "right". It is just an opinion. Probably not a good one for me as I get so easily hurt:)

But I am interested in knowing how others think about what the purposes of this site should be and how they should be implemented?

I do think if one does not want to receive Babble form a particular person I should be able to exclude them.
It would all be akin to the "real world". If someone acts in a manner that irritates others they suffer consequences. For example they loose friends. Why not be able to do that on this site? I think it would be another valuable way for this site to be helpful to us and my pet peeve not helpful to those that have "control or power issues.

Please do not take this as insulting or anything negative. I just have certain opinions based on some pretty terrible life experience but that does not make them the end all be all correct opinions. That is the whole reason I am putting it out there for discussion or response.


I wish you only well wishes. I don;t know you but we are on this site looking for help. I hope you get what you are looking for on this site or anywhere else. Honestly I would not want anyone, even my enemies to have to survive life the way I find myself doing.

Thanks,

oky

ps okay so I need to write a journal and stop bothering people around me with all my problems. Feel free to say so perhaps you have some good ideas to motivate me to change my behavior or motivate others to change their behaviors.

Hi,

Just to say, I have communicated with Phillipa by babblemail and I have never found her to be harrassing in any way, neither has she ever posted sensitive information to me about other posters.

Don't you all think you are being a tad over sensitive and petty here? To be perfectly honest I wouldn't give a damn about anyone sending information about my mental health history or my medical history to anyone else associated with this board, after all I post it on her for all to see anyway.

All I'm interested in is getting better and supporting other people (when I can).

I can't help but feel there has been some sort of misunderstanding here which has been blown out of all proportion and I don't particularly like the way Phillipa is being branded as some kind of obsessive stalker, when she isn't!

Wow I know I have been ranting but I hope you did not get that from me. I babbled Phillipa also. I had and have no negative feelings about her telling me she saw my real name on facebook. I was just trying to figure out how it happened. I am not worried about it anyway.

I was concerned she felt the need to protect herself. Protect herself from what or whom?

I see she is about trying to help others. Isn't what this site is supposed to be about!


I did not go back and read through the thread so I am not up on what all you might be talking about but it is nice of you to be supportive.

Sorry all, as an afterthought, I don't mean to trivialise what has happened to you but I just really wanted to say that I've never had a problem with Phillipa and I think really she should be given the opportunity to speak in her own defense.

After re-reading the threads, I agree if you communicate privately with somebody via email then you don't expect your emails to be copied and sent on to somebody else behind your back but perhaps there is an innocent explanation for why this was done and perhaps it was not done in a malicious way.

Anyway, I'll shut up now. This really had nothing to do with me, I just felt a bit sorry for Phillipa as I've always found her to be inoffensive and sweet in her own way.
