> Deneb,
> I think it's important that you talk about this with your pdoc honestly. If there are patterns here on the board of people not fully trusting you, I think it's important to face that, understand it, and figure out why it keeps happening.I agree. There is something about the way I interact with others that is very maladaptive and destructive. I think a large part of the problem are the boards themselves...I mean, this medium. There aren't enough social cues here or something...
> Maybe you're not well enough now to accept it and try to work on it, and I understand that. If you're not well, you need to focus first on getting yourself stable.
Thank-you for understanding JenStar.
> But if you really want to get well fully, I think you need to be fully honest with the pdoc about all the issues you encounter here and IRL. Then he/she can really work together with you to figure out the best way to get you well.
Most of the "issues" I encounter are here and not in real life, but I still think it is important for me to be able to interact in healthy ways with people here. My pdoc has told me that people here are just online strangers who don't really care about me. I think he is wrong. I think my pdoc may tell me to just avoid Babble if it is causing me distress.
Thanks JenStar for your advice
