There's probably a real sensitivity to the "loss" of posters also because of Sar's recent death.
It is tough, isn't it? I feel an obligation to the board because I post here. When I take little breaks, or attempt to take a larger one :), I usually come back and read and then get pulled into certain posts again. I try to answer any threads I've started.
I'm not sure it's bad to feel obligated. We do have an obligation to those who care about us. But, of course, when one is really at despair's edge, one becomes very internalized.
If there is a real connection between two people here, it is probably best to exchange emails and keep up that way. When a person doesn't respond to an email for an extended period, there is real reason to worry.
Does anyone know if people can exchange e-mails confidentially on the site?
