Dear Phillipa,
Of course, I am flattererd by your remark, but in reality, there are people who have frequented Psycho-Babble whom I hold in much higher regard for the depth and scope of knowledge and understanding they possess. It is all I can do but to just keep up.
One of the blessings of a forum like Psycho-Babble is that it attracts people possessing varying strengths in specific areas of knowledge. I look to a great many people here to aid in the expansion of my own. Learning is a painstaking endeavor for me because my reading comprehension is so poor. However, I can usually count on people here to put me on the right track.
Bottom line: There are people here who blow me away!
I would also like to add that it is of great value that people should simply share their experiences with their treatments. The anecdotes available here have often supplanted academic contentions when it comes to accuracy and validity.
One last point, if I may. I see EVERYONE here learning and growing as a result of their participation on Psycho-Babble. We learn from each other. It is self-evident that a lack of education or specific knowledge does not equate to a lack of intelligence. I can't tell you how many times the thoughts and theories of a "layman" (which is all that I am, by the way), have struck me as being brilliant. Everyone's thoughts and feelings are important. There is hope in the belief that everyone's combined efforts here yield successes every day.
- Scott
