No, actually I don't. I would rather be informed about all aspects of medications I am taking or may take. I don't want to hide my head in the sand and pretend there's not a downside to drugs because there is. Imagine if people were not informed that eating the wrong food when you're taking an MAOI could kill you. Would you rather prefer everything be kept positive rather than know the risks?
As at least one other board member said, if you see a message you think might upset you, don't read it. A message headed "Bleeding and SSRIs" is highly likely to contain information that could be disturbing. I would much prefer to know about this so I have the ability to make informed choices. You apparently would not. So make the choice of skipping over the message rather than denying others access to information they may find very useful.
People have different sensibilities, different wants, different needs. You can't expect the board to meet your wants at the expense of other people's. If you feel your only choice is to leave, that's unfortunate. I think you would better serve yourself by selecting what you read rather than abandoning the board altogether. That way you can get information that's useful to you and others can get what's useful to them.
