That was a very thoughtful and provoking post. Much can be made out of a post like that. I might not have always exhibited what some people want me to say or do, but I also haven't taken my own pain or feelings out on anyone else who may be feeling low, despondent, or just wanting to share a feeling. I may have only shared an issue that is of short duration, but I don't think it is helpful to get angry with someone who is or is not living up to other people's expectations. I am not suicidal, but I think it is normal to have suicidal feelings. Frustration and a lack of direction can create tremendous feelings of despair. If one can't purge their feelings on a website where the very existence is one of dealing with chronic pain, then I don't know where else a person can vent. For those that find my remarks frustrating and my lack of direction and apparent "poor" attitude disconcerting......I apologize.
