Giving us a place to come and get and give support? Well, this thread is entirely consistent with the purpose of this site. PartlyCloudy expressed the fact that she was experiencing pain and other negative emotional reactions after reading some posts here on Admin. Other posters were responding to her expression of pain, and offering support.

If so, did you understand that those posts were not specifically referenced, because it wasn't about your posts so much as their emotional responses to reading them? Do you see the distinction?

Racer,
I have made a request to Dr. Hsiung to write a determination as to if the post in question is acceptable or not in relation to the guidlines of the forum.
Are you saying that, in your opinion , that the post is acceptable here?
