Yep, definitely Type A personality here. My body used to match my mind lol Hate seeing you ladies bicker! Relieve your stress and agree to let it go. We're all in this thing called MS together.

Actually, I'm okay now. I should have said what needed to be said, "I'm sorry for bringing you up in this thread Cherie. I tried not to specifically point to you, but it was that thread that made me realize that I still struggle with the need to "fix" things."
I think that it was these traits - in myself, and myself alone! - that at least brought my MS to the forefront! I just wondered if anyone else felt the same way. And it really doesn't help me now to get confrontational. If I had still been on Celexa, none of anything I've said on any thread in the past few days would have been there. It totally takes away this need on my part to let everyone know my opinion, and that you better like my opinion! But if you were to meet me, you'd all really like me! I'm caring, helpful, funny, smart, self-depracating, and for those around me sought-after for advice. I usually am fairly wise and knowledgeable in what I have to say. But I do have ugly character flaws that like to rear their head, at times when I'm busy. So---- Sorry to Cherie! And to Denise - a big thanks! And to the rest of you type A's, help me stay on track so that my MS doesn't get any headway in my brain!

Hi Brenda . It's good to 'see' you . I'm type A too (which will become apparent in this post, I fear). My type A-ness has calmed down a bit since the MS has really put a cramp in my style . Athough you and I haven't always seen eye to eye on things, we have been respectful and kind to one another. I totally understand why you posted to the other thread . I probably would have done the same if I wasn't out of town at the time. Sometimes I feel the need to defend (not sure if that's quite the right word I want to use) other people's right to keep a thread on track even though I've been guilty of veering OT on occasion. I also don't believe that anyone should post about a drug that they have no personal experience with, jmo. I'm on the drug in question. I only post about it on the thread that is dedicated to it (most of the time). It would be interesting to see some of the good stats posted to balance the bad ones that we see from the people who aren't on the drug. When all you see from certain posters is the negative aspects, it kind of makes you want to disregard their opinions and stats. I'm not singling you out, Cherie. There are others who do this also. I don't intend to offend anybody. This is just my opinion.

Whatever my faults, I will continue to correct any “misinformation” passed on, and I am at peace with my motivation for doing so. Cheers, Cherie

Sandy's right.....you didn't do anything wrong. You've just as much right to express you opinion about whatever you choose as the next person. I think you handled the situation very nicely.

I am an A type wanna-be.
Guess that would make me a B type, or an A- but mostly, I got c's and d's in school. |

HEHE....
Well, after reading through this thread ....YEAH....I've certainly got some TYPE A traits inside of me! I like what was said about correcting misinformation, not to be 'right' or to be given 'credit', but to make sure that others out there are getting good quality information and not opinionated misinformation....I'm more notorious for having heated discussions and debates on another non-neuro based group board over such things. But at the same time, I know how to apologize and back off and let it go. Much like what happened here Funny thing happened today....type a related....my 3yr old asked me to draw a tractor. My 5 yr old put checks and x's....he 'corrected' my drawing of a tractor!!!
