Jack Smith,
I would hope that Dr Bob would not ban you for speaking your mind. And I'm sure that your opinion is felt, to different degrees, by alot of the people reading these posts. Most people might not say it though, giving wharfrat the benefit of the doubt. Oddly enough, your comment balanced everything nicely. An outpouring of sympathy balanced by the father-figure voice of reason. I probably don't make any sense. LOL
Anyways, it is a BEAUTIFUL day to be alive.> And that's what you did, that's why I said "grow up." I think coming on to a board and saying you are going to kill yourself is unacceptable unless you really are serious. Then to just dismiss it all as "drunken ramblings" is a childish cry for attention. I read your series of posts and got very upset that it appeared like someone was actually dying as they were posting. It certainly seemed like you were trying to imply that you had OD'd and you were posting a long goodbye. . . .

> To then read that you were just "rambling" is really upsetting. Reminds of me of previous poster who faked a suicide attempt on this board and posted as her dad saying that she was in the hospital. I come here for support, not to see how people will react if I pretend to kill myself. I am not going to toy with people's emotions.
