Phil:
I got wind of a post of yours on another board (I'm not able to post on it, so I never read that board), and I wanted to let you know that I'm not ignoring your posts. I just haven't had much to say--aside from what I post at Admin. And I certainly never expected either you or Shar to choose sides and leave the board. How would that help you?
I have a few personal reasons for posting little. (I sometimes can't resist Admin, as you may have noticed.) One is that I have a daughter who needs my attention. Another is that I have not found much on this board I'm interested in lately (and to those who would be upset by this, I'm sorry, but it's nothing against them any more that choosing "Frazier" over the other comedies on television is against "Everybody Loves Raymond").
Finally, I found out from my therapist that I am a fraud. That's right. I took a personality test a few months ago, and there is nothing wrong with me. He said I am 100% normal: no dysthymia, no low-grade depression, no anxiety, no ADD, no nothing. My only problems, he said, were that I am opinionated (duh!) and am prone, according to a comparison of all the people who answered the way I did, to depression. Otherwise, my insomnia has been a non-issue, and I am dealing with having been robbed in a very productive way.
Site administration has not been a problem on Social, and I stopped reading the Faith site when Lou returned. PB is done for me because I've been on the same meds for years. And PPB is also done, for the reasons above.
So, though I originally left in protest of Sandra Dee's block on PBA, it's hard to fight for what you think is right when you don't get a chance to say it.
Anyway, that's the whole poop. I really don't feel like I belong here, since my troubles seem so minor compared to others. I don't even feel like my advice is warranted.
I hope you understand.
Your pal,
beardy : )>
