Hi Nikki,
Yes I agree with you. "What goes around comes around" is another saying.
I was addressing something else in my post too...but didn't quite get around to saying it...
That is when someone is mentally ill, for example they are depressed, do you fuel their depressive thoughts? - Of course not
When someone is suffering from mania, would you fuel their racing thoughts? - of course not.
And finally, when someone is suffering from obsessive compulsive thoughts, would you fuel these obsessive thoughts? - No you wouldn't
What if you didn't realise you was fueling these thoughts and "perhaps" making someones condition worse? Maybe you would keep doing it until you realised otherwise...
More importantly, when you finally did realise that maybe, just maybe you wasn't actually helping someone get better, in fact you was actually making tham worse. What would you do?
For me i'm trying to figure out what is helping, and what is making things worse. I think I know whats making things worse and i'll try my best to help. Sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind - and in doing so i'll do my best to remain civil
Kind regards
Nick
Ps Nikki - Apart from the first part of my message..the rest was kinda addressed to the rest of the board, just incase that sounded confusing :-O
