Please note that *I* am expressing my loss here in my post and while this board allows for comments I beseech anyone with the need to question my grief to start a new thread out of courtesy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I grieve for the loss of a sense of fostered support by the administration of this board.I posted here in winter/spring of 1999 for the first time. I found and followed those that are no longer here. One can only hope they are doing better but sadly through the close babblevine I know some are still in the same arduous battles they've been waging all their lives.
I grieve for their loss of support and dignity they once had here.
I grieve that I no longer feel this place (the actual little 1s and 0s that make up this 'site' as it is) is of any safety to me.
I will be mourning for a long time the unknown status of many who were shown the door.
I will be mourning the loss of many friends I once held so dear as without this site it is damned near impossible to stay in touch with all those one would like to.
I am sad that the archives are swiss cheesed and much of my posting history no longer remains. That part of my life was chronicled here because I was hardly able to lay pen to paper. But hey I'm only someone with mental illness so what does my life count for, eh? At least I do have many posts printed out to show pdoc and therp. and without this ability I would be even more lost with dx than I am now.
Again I grieve this place that fostered such an incredible array of people in dialogues of such differing subject ranging from meds to philosophy to legitimate medication info (there used to be a couple of folks who posted that shared their credentials and in one particular incident that information I had asked for saved my kidneys from going into failure)....
I could go on ad nauseum about how much there is to grieve for and I'm sure some will come up with a 'let's celebrate babble' and post away with all the bazillions of good it does them and theirs.
I grieve for the one who has their head embeded so deeply in the dirt ostrich-like hoping and praying that the inevitable won't happen.
It will. And for that I cry.

This was so sad, I couldn't reply until now. And even now I don't know what to say.
I'm just glad to have met you.

fallen is but one of many over the years that has left....when fallen left the reasons were posted....as have many others when they've left....
when tears are shed we know them to be true
when expressions of being harmed are shared we believe them
when pain is suffered we trust it is authentic
and the ending remains the same....
