I-- and I think a lot of people-- come to Psychobabble to learn more about psych meds, present and future.
I find posts about other ailments disturbing and unnecessary. If I wanted to read about lots of diseases I would go to medical discussion forum, not a psychiatric meds discussion forum.
It not only adds unnecessary anxiety to reading the meds board (as I'm often coming up against posts on illnesses that I don't particularly want to think about), but disrupts the flow of posts and creates diversions and controversy.
If the babble meds board is going to address all sorts of illnesses, then I won't to there, but at least I'll know what to expect if I do.
I feel as if an implicit promise is being broken when I go to a board that's about a certain subject and keep coming across posts on other distressing issues.
