[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 644473, member: 13542"] I began this thread in the hopes of simply sharing information. I too have done a lot of studying of the various forms of mental illness and disorders of the mind and I've had 22 years of therapy. One thing that I have learned in my journey is that opinions abound on all of these subjects and there are many experts who differ. As we do here. Perhaps we might try being a little more sympathetic to each other and our various forms of communicating without taking everything personally. If someone says I am wrong, well, that is their opinion, it is not fact. Just as what I am saying is my opinion, it is not fact. [I]Facts are hard to come by and opinions are rampant. [/I] Lately there have been too many immediate negative responses flying around and I am making a public request to have it stop now. Just as we have to learn to refrain and think before we act with our difficult child's, as adults here, we have to learn to let things go........if your feelings are hurt, then sit on it for a little while and try to determine if that person was intentionally trying to harm you. More often then not, that is NOT the case. It is simply someone's opinion. ......I see people sharing what they believe to be the truth from their vantage point. If you don't like their style or the way they say something it is easy enough to ignore that person. There is no point in publicly bashing someone. From this point on, if this continues I will lock the thread immediately. This is not the place for bickering about right and wrong, or taking things personally. [/QUOTE]
