In reply to my 2¢ on giving medical advice, posted by floatingbridge on October 27, 2010, at 1:47:50
Hey, it's my thoughts after reading some testy exchanges that were about differing treatment approaches in which the best interests of the person asking for advice* was just about forgotten while one poster challenged another's authority. And the other poster, IMO was not 'owning' his or her advice, in that it sounded so disembodied--like 'this is how it is and anyone can see that'.
It's very small fish to fry, again, IMO, because afterwards I read another long thread started by (I think) Lou.
*Soliciting advice online seems dicey to me (yet here I am, giving and receiving it). My assumption is that anyone doing so needs to make their own decisions and comes here of freewill (even if tinged with a bit of desperation). There's no reason why we shouldn't hold our behavior on PB to a high standard, each in their own way. My post was meant as suggestion and musing, not prescription.
MDD currently controlled. C-ptsd and comorbid health concerns. Chronic fatigue.
