Hey Everyone. I hope this post finds you all well.:)

It's amazing how much I've learned about people just from being a member here. Not from any shrink that hasn't suffered the way I did years ago and to some extent the present. Every damn thing they suggested has been pretty much covered from you all here. I'm not saying that they are useless. They do help many people. Just not me.

Regardless of those who want to see me tar and feathered, those who like me, and those who are unsure, the fact remains that when a member is suffering, you all come together to offer solace and encouragement with zeal and sincerity. That's a very powerful thing. It's a very commendable thing also.

I'll be brutally honest here. There were was a time when I got so pissed off at a member that I decided to look around for a different forum to join similar to this one. No such luck. This forum has mods, an administrator, and countless other members who are kind and real.

To those who are in frustration and pissed off at someone here or the forum itself leaving you wanting to have your account deleted, you better make damn sure that you have already found another forum to fall back on, because I sure as hell couldn't find one with a mixture of cool forum features and as pleasant a roster of members as this one. They're too damn rare to find. Trust me.

I think that authoring "Appreciation" threads for individuals is wonderful. I just wanted to post this suggesting that we all deserve appreciation. The help and education on human behavior I receive here is much more effective than any health care professional has ever given me.

Despite my problems I've had with other members, I'm glad that I am a member here. I've said before, and I'll say it again. You guys have good hearts. Don't ever lose them because you will never get them back.

-Jason
 
:D Yes... ALL is a wonderful place. Love and kindness is the best medicine ever. And..free too. lol.
 
yes, thanks ALL for keeping me out of the funny farm (that is the correct expression in English, yes?)
 
Therapists have many different schools of though from which they can choose to approach therapy.

Maybe you just didn't find the right therapist.
 
I know some of you hate me on here or get irritated by me, but I have to say that I feel no ill resentment towards anyone on here. I am proud to call this place home.

That is a good point.

Call me bitter, but from what i've seen, it seems that 95% of psychologists and psychiatrists are utter garbage.

Back on topic, it's nice of you to have written this thread, it is a very nice forum indeed. Without it, i might've pulled through with killing myself. Right now, that thought is but a distant memory.

I'm very glad to hear that Rosebolt.:)
 
Nice thread Jason :)

I can vouch for the lack of other forums too, this one is much better, hence why I returned after about 6 months or so (oh and for my ol' bean Pog of course :p)
 
Thanks Jason. You're awesome.

And yeah, this forum has saved me.. many times I would say. I always say it's kinda like my cyber home base.
 
Jason I would like to apologise to you for the run in we had a couple of weeks back. You may not even remember it, but I do. I still believe I was correct in saying what I said, but I am sorry that things escalated the way they did. Next time I will try to be less abrasive in the way I say things. Friends?

Friends? Of course. No apologies necessary man.
I don't hold grudges. This is a far from perfect world. Regardless of how abrasive you may have come across, you were speaking your mind and I respect that. I've certainly done my share of being abrasive with others.

Life is too damn short to remain hung up on things in the past that we can't get back. I appreciate and respect your words. As far as I'm concerned you and I are cool.

I'm glad this can be a safe place for you LF. If for anyone I'd hope this place would feel safe for you.

Thanks, Soph. Well there are times my paranoia comes about but I think generally, it's been all well and positive here.
