Noa, thank you for the "welcome" and the DJ background. I did not properly give a nod to your feelings regarding the perhaps somewhat arrogant nature of DJ's post except via the connotation implied when I referred to his speech as a "sermon." Thus, I do somewhat agree with you on this.
I guess though since I did not know any history of DJ, this did not seem to bother me so much, and because I was not personally involved in any of this past history, it still does not bother me. At least I do not consider it to be (and still do not) worthy enough of a fault to address.
Yes, DJ is obviously heading in a brave (new?) direction. Yes, he might succeed. Yes, he might fail. Yes, he might land between the two. Time will tell. Yes, it is his journey. I just wanted to be supportive because if DJ succeeds (and there have been "DJ's" who have), then it will be encouraging to those whose nature might be similar to DJ's. A cursory glance at the posts on this board attest to the fact that different treatments work for different people and some not all ... and sadly ... some never fully do.
Me? I'll probably start that round of MAOI's on Wednesday. Anybody/place you can suggest for advice (diet, reactions, etc.)? [I'll post this as a new topic above.]
