Lightrail11,

For me u hit the nail on the head. This month and last several members have proclaimed strongly about being healed or knowing of healers and how we will regret not trying xyz. That sh@t plays on my desperateness and I don't like the anxiety I get and start thinking...'what if this could do it? Oh God, what if I don't try. ' to me that is pressure.

My heart jumps at the thought of something that may end this nightmare. I wait and read following remarks and then I notice that they don't contribute much and I feel that some posters like that get angry or defensive.

I can't do this research myself and I definitely don't have $ to gamble. I need others to critique so I can try to make a decision as my decision making skills are poor. There are just some people here that for over a year I've interacted with and feel comfortable with their opinion. If someone is brand spanking new bringing up a new therapy...

then I wonder what some of our more experienced users think because they have seen and been a part of thousands of posts here as compared to 1, 10, 20. They have likely heard of it.

And if someone brings up an interesting idea here we ask our doctors. But it's nice to quell or excite possibilities with those that have been around the block a few thousand times and I appreciate these members a great deal for the research and time they devote to helping others

People should leave their fussy pants at home and try not to get defensive here. I'm guilty too and promise not to wear my fussy pants while online here.
