Philippa,
Hah! I liked your post very much. To me, this board has become very addicting, as you get a chance to communicate and learn from people who are going through similar situations and this gives me and others a sense of comfort and connectedness. When people feel depressed, they need to let their problems out, and most people don't want to constantly hear complaining (my dad hates it!) so this board is a great place to "vent". This board serves as another type of therapy for me, but, when I'm feeling good, I don't like to wallow on this board. I ONLY read posts regarding my problems, which is what I hope most people do. If you start reading posts from people that you recognize from Pbabble solely to see how they are feeling and responding to them, that might be a waste of time.
Philippa, GREAT POST! I think MANY of us are addicted to this site and, too much of this, is actually detrimental to our emotional problems! In my case, reading about all the side effects/horror stories of certain drugs on this site, just seems to scare me more.peace.
