Nikki, at the risk of being "typecast" by others here with whom I differ on the issue of humor boundaries, Let me say that I hate that you feel badly here, and sad that you are hurt. I think I understand why.

I want you around. I like you and I think you were brave to share your opinion.

I am skipping threads I find upsetting. Can you stick around and try that too?

My problem is - I don't knows it's offensive, till I'm offended!!!

I am very seriously, not an easily offended person, but Mark's post was kinda the last straw...

I'l take some time out, and see how I feel...

ta hun!

Nikki, have you seen the most recent posts in that thread? There is now a dialogue going on about it. Perhaps it might help to see Mark's response to Dr. Bob.

I see it.. I see no real apology though. And it really is more than that.. shar has made me feel particularly uncomfrtable.

Like I said, time out is maybe what I need...

OK, I respect that, Nikki. I hope you will come back eventually, though.

James here....

Sounds like a good idea. We are getting into a meta discussion here, i.e. the discussion of the discussion, which as little to do with the issues
at hand; support for those with mental illness.
When I get fed up with whatever internet place I
find a break to be very helpful.

Nikki,

I regret that you feel uncomfortable. If you want to talk about it, I'm very open to that, and will give you my private e-mail if you want to take this off the board. If you decide to leave, I hope you will come back soon (who knows--maybe I'll be banished by then!).

As I responded to bob, when I said vocal minority, it was not your post to which I was referring. In case that's what you're uncomfortable with.

Shar

James here....

Well, other people seem to be able to do this,
so maybe it is something you could work on. There
are some subjects I avoid and some people I avoid.
