ceesea wrote "desperate" on psycho social babble on 5/27. She said something like " suicide is becoming an optio" and I thought you guys should look at it because I read that someone on here committed suicide before.

for many of us "it" is a real option..
but i think you should have read all of cee's post.
"someone one here", reference was really ....shocking to me...!hurtful....
i understand you have the best of intentions...
and i admire your compasion.

> reference was really ... hurtful
Keeping in mind that the idea here is not to post anything that could lead others to feel accused, could you please rephrase that?

When did it become incorrect for us to say something was hurtful? I must have missed that one.
Can you give an example of an appropriate 'rephrase' of the offending passage?

> Can you give an example of an appropriate 'rephrase' of the offending passage?It tends to be more conducive to harmony to talk about how you feel than what someone else did, for example, to use an I-statement like "I feel hurt by what you said" instead of a you-statement like "you're so hurtful".

I get it that you felt that me saying "some here' said they felt despertateetc. I only said that because I didn't want to say her name and feel like a gossip or a rat. I know I'd be sensitive if I came to admin and saw people talking about me. Anyway, I wasn't hurt and didn't mean to be hurtful ,

Hi Owen,
I think jyl may have meant the way an old friend from here was referenced (the current poster was named). But again I see where not mentioning a name may have seemed to you like it would be less distressing, and you meant well.
Anyway hope that helps, but then again, I may be wrong myself...
