No, no, Dinah - my question was directed entirely to Dr. Bob & that's all I was curious about - intuition. You see I wondered if psychiatrists (though not all, of course) operate on their intuition along with their formal training. It wasn't meant as criticism of Dr. Bob's methods - the question was meant to be taken at face value & nothing more. I figured if I asked a psychiatrist (rather than any patients), I'd get an honest answer to a direct question.
Dear Dinah, I do understand you & I think I read you very well. No, sweetie, you're not one of those 'disruptive' posters. AND I'm not at all insulted or hurt if you possibly thought I was referring to you. In fact, I wasn't referring to any one really. All I meant was that some people have difficulty 'reading' others whether face-to-face or through written communication.
I've always excelled at English courses but when I took a course in business-related communication, I was surprised but how easily messages can be misconstrued through the written media in the work environment & we were taught how to deal with it. I believe the same is true with this board with so many posters coming from such varied backgrounds & never getting a chance to meet each other face-to-face like one can at work.
So, sweetie, my previous post wasn't meant for ANY ONE, & certainly not you or dear krazy kat. It was meant simply as a observation that certain posters have unfortunately clashed in the past by misinterpreting one another & then it's escalated from there. Without the conflict happening, the boards seem more productive.
And Dinah, don't apologise - it's not needed by me. Remember, I have a son who can't help that he misinterprets things at times & I thoroughly do understand how difficult it is for some not to be able to read others. While I bemoan my horrible time-management/organisational concepts, I'm so grateful my ability to read people excells. We're all 'blind' in some area or another, but excell in others.
