But seriously, for my own clarity... as I rarely want to post anything publicly to begin with... can you please explain how I or anyone else is not on topic?
I feel like this is the second time I feel discouraged from being "conversational" regarding the topic of childhood medical issues or something else related to ptsd/depression/anxiety etc... and, honestly, I feel like the one thing this site is lacking on is a lot of postings, conversations and members input. Its kind of slow anf frankly I dont see how adding to the conversation here is a BAD thing that requires a moderators "reminder"...
If we are ONLY on topic when we have the original posters very specific experience, well, that may never happen... what are the chances that someone has exactly that... nearly zero! What are the chances that someone on here has a similar or relatable childhood experience, much greater and therefore the poster is more likely to feel supported and heard and have a community. You know, I had a friend with some BIG problems... she hated how she felt like a freak when she told her story as nobody shared anything remotely similar with her.
Has it ever been considred that maybe a little slap on the hand causes me to amplify and completely over think and maybe I don't want to be posting at all about any of this to begin with and then on yop of that I feel like Im not complying with the program?
Seems like the moderators are pretty "active" on here which I get as its a mental health posting site and I'm sure things get out of hand BUT I aso dont get it as this is specifically for a demographic that largely doesnt want to talk about any aspect of this to begin with... maybe I've been just waiting for thirty-five years to talk about this and now I dont want to anymore...
Discouraging at best.
