Actually, I didn't mean to suggest the idea of someone talking to god makes ME gag. My question, I think, had more to do with why are some "extra-medical" suggestions more acceptable than others here? Truth is, I'm at a stage where drugs no longer seem the answer for me, and it IS educational and supportive for me to read posts from people who are trying a different route. Though I haven't read every post in the archives, I do seem to keep stumbling onto threads where people who are trying a different route get blasted in what seems to me to be an insensitive and uncivil way. Rockets' sarcastic reply to a post that was meaningful and interesting to me felt like a kick in the teeth. And I'm sorry that I misinterpreted CarolAnn's post as being a response to boBB's---
I'm coming to the conclusion that chat rooms of any kind are probably not a good way for me to interact.(I first touched a computer about 2 1/2 months ago, so I'm not an experienced hand at this.) But it seems sad that minorities here, in
virtual life, are treated much the same as they are in real life. Lord knows why that should surprise me. Just a cock-eyed optimist, I guess.
