everyone has the right to vent or try to stir up a hornets nest here. does it really matter in the big picture? i don't think so.
i figure that if someone is venting or just being a broken record and repeating themselves, nothing i post is going to make a difference to them so i'm not going to put a lot of effort in responding. this board isn't the only source of info about pd, i'm not worried that someone will make major decisions only on what is posted on this board.

i'll gladly respond if someone asks a reasonable specific question, we all have a lot of useful experiences worth sharing.

in the u.s., with it's terrible social safety net, many people without pd lead miserable lives.
