Most Liked User's List - Commendations

[intothelight]

I just want to say thank you ("like") to everyone that takes the time to post here, and share their experiences, thoughts, suggestions, gentle correction (kick to butt when needed), and their heart and soul.

I am deeply touched by this recognition, and also feeling a little embarrassed, as it is extremely difficult for me to accept a compliment. So I am accepting this graciously, and saying thank you from the bottom of my heart. I can relate to Deer's comment of being "thrown into the deep end of the therapy pool"; but as with so many things related to this site, it has been my greatest source of learning, healing, support.

Well done to all members!
Debbie

It's nice when people who really help to enrich and inspire others on this forum almost daily, can be recognized honored in a special way. A big thank you to each of you for all of your thoughtful, honest, and helpful posts.

Well done Link Removed There some pretty impressive like counts, I do think that so many people on here post some great stuff and everyone deserves a lot of credit (likes). Clearly Deer, Debbie, Anni and Adamant deserve some credit for the obvious quality of there posts.

Jade, I posted this thread to highlight a different perspective on a new forum feature & acknowledge those people.

That doesn't take away from people who come here to work through their trauma. I initially came here out of desperation to understand PTSD. Now I can share my knowledge to hopefully help others but I'm not good at sugar coating (roll eyes).

It takes all types to make this forum work. If there was something I could say to you Jade it would be to credit you with determination.

Oh, it's so nice that they most-percentage-liked users are getting acknowledged here, even if it is hard for some of them to take a compliment. I only really know one of the people on this list since I'm still fairly new, but I know just from what I have observed around the boards that they all deserve this. I often find myself thinking that I really don't deserve people to be as nice to me as some of the people here are, lol. But I think if anything can heal our hearts it's the love and kindness of people like Debbie and Deer and all the others who offer such wonderful support. ((((hugs))))

Hi Everybody,

I apologize for being shy about your praise. Thank you so much, and Nicolette, you really "got" me :D .
Nicolette did a major piece of therapy for me, today... All of you, by accepting and applauding are touching very deep, old wounds, that I think many of us carry. Thank you for your healing kindness and love.

I didn't know what "Weebles" were, until I looked it up because of sweet Debbie and Anni.
I think Weebles Rock :D !

I love you all so deeply. I love this forum, what Anthony and Nicolette, all the Staff and all the members are doing for everyone here. This is Home! I think like just about everyone here, I want to hear you - because I know how painful it is not to be heard. I want to hold, love, comfort, share the best of what I have learned that is helpful. Everyone here has such beautiful gifts and lives and promise and there is so just so much pain and hurt... I just want to be with you, love you, listen to you, walk arm in arm with you toward healing...

Thank you.
Sending hugs and all my love,
Deer

I wish you wouldn't think you had to back away from the thread Jadebear- it's kinda for everyone. If I ever stop being a wuss I'll have to tell you how much you've personally helped me with this ridiculous avoidance stuff I do and in point of fact just did it again. Of course it's convoluted, like everything else with this stupid PTSD thing.

My pleasure Deer. It is actually quite amazing that a simple goodwill gesture lead to something so helpful for you. It makes me feel good that my intent had such an amazing impact. Like I often say; if my comments only help one person then I am happy. :D

Dear Nicolette,

You're still having a huge impact, and I'm still shaking and working my way through this.
Members may not know, but I was nearly killed by my own sister whenever I was recognized for something. This happened repeatedly, and so left very deep wounds and fears of doing anything that anyone would see, recognize or applaud.

Nicolette, you and the members here, have affected me in such a powerful, healing way... truly as the sister(s) and family I wish I had. You do so much, and in just this one thread, and comment on my profile, you've created an immense healing process still working in my spirit.

You've really shaken me up, and I am intensely grateful!
With deep respect, appreciation and much love!
Deer

Wow...update.. Deer has more likes than posts and ITL has almost matched likes with posts. Amazing statistics and as for Anni, she always has something nice to say :D

 

[Nicolette]

Well done ladies! It's nice to have some kindness, caring & love spread here to balance out the downside of PTSD.

Apology required...........

I just had a closer look (being the number cruncher I am) and realised that I forgot to commend KP the nut who has more likes than posts and BloomInWinter who has almost as many likes as posts.

Great contributions!
