Can't we all just get along? I voice no opinion on who is right or who is wrong. All, I know is a whole lot of people are trying to help each other in this forum,the best they know how. If it works what was lost?

If someone did not want to share their story they would not do it at least I wouldn't. I have not wrote abour 3/4 of the things I have been through and don't know if I will ever. Why, so someone can say I only care about myself and want to bohoo? I posted a poem on "do not judge" let's all read this and try again to be helpful which is the intent of this forum that Anthony started.

woweeee! This is quite the thread. Not the funnest to read. I feel particularly responsible for it. I am sorry for this. It was my decision to post and Anthony did warn me about how I would feel afterwards, etc.... He said it was up to me and I posted, was uneasy about it but noone pushed me into it. I was asked a question, put alot of thought into answering it, and replied. It was actually what my T and I were discussing (and still are) as to where the blame/fault/guilt falls. Thank you for the replies in that thread, it brings things up that have not been looked at yet. I thank all for the support. I left out alot of stuff as to not being comfortable at all posting those things, especially 1 thing I dont think I'll ever talk about. I'm really not quite sure what to say about this anymore. I'm sorry for this, and I hope things will calm down and loosen up, get back to helping each other (I know I'm quite new here and hav'nt helped anyone, but I hope someday to know the right words to say).

Everyone take care, I'm thinking tomorow will be a great day, how 'bout you?

Cypher you are here trying to work through you trauma. Good on you I say. There is nothing in this thread which you should be sorry for let alone feel responsible.

Keep up the good work.

Cypher, absolutely not your fault for this thread. This is just the ramblings of one person who suddenly disagree's with my own methods... the very methods now being adopted within the mental health industry. Vicky is dismissing your input into the equation, being you where given all the options to not go into it, and you knew what would occur going into it... though you are proving once again, like everyone I deal with using these very methods, that they work on those who suffer trauma.

It is no different to helping someone with AA.... being another AA member who has passed the barriers becomes a sponsor to another, a person who once suffered exactly what they went through. This forum does exactly that, in that I share, others share, these exact methods and approaches to help push one another past the fear of facing our trauma, facing our reality of understanding, putting our lives back in perspective. Without this approach, we just become another person who sits in therapy for decades achieving little to nothing.

Again, not your fault, you are not responsible for this other members ramblings upon this forum. You are entitled to seek help, just like many others.... don't ever feel bad for what another views as a hinderance or disagreement in their own life. You make your decisions and your choices, believe in those choices and accept right or wrong, either way, learn from those choices you make. Your doing just fine as you have taken the push here into therapy for face to face discussion.... well done Cypher, keep up the great work and ignore members like this who want to bring you, me or others who want to beat the nonsense down to their shitty, depressive playing field.
