> You wrote here that I have posted negatively about your character. In writing that I see your approach as being disruptive to this forum and that I don't see Psycho-Babble as a place where members can discuss their treatments without feeling judged with your warnings being here, I did indeed criticize your approach and some of your posts, but I don't see what I wrote as attacking your character. On the contrary, I wrote that you have good intentions and that you sincerely want to make sure that we know of the potential consequences of taking psychiatric medications. As far as I can tell, those are the only things I wrote about your character. By criticizing your approach and some of your posts, I wanted to express how I felt some of your statements affect Psycho-Babble in a negative way, but I did not intend to insult your character, nor do I think I did.

> I'm sorry if what I wrote led you to feel accused or put down. It was my goal to offer some constructive criticism and to let you know how I feel some of your statements have a negative impact on this board, but you seem to have viewed my statements as an attack on your character, which again is not what I was aiming to do.

> TomatheusT,
You wrote,[...your approach..disruptive...members can not discuss their treatment without feeling being judged because you post warnings here, Lou,...your statements affect PB in a negative way...have a negative impact here...because of your warnings and talking about the adverse effects to children given these drugs, PB *cant be*...]
What you have posted about me could decrease the respect, regard and confidence in which I am held and induce hostile and disagreeable opinions and feelings against me by stigmatization as someone that is doing something that you say to others reading here could in some way bring harm to this community, because you say that this community *can't be* because of what I post.
I feel greatly humiliated by reading that you take upon yourself to post such about what I post, which is supportive and educational in accordance with the mission of this forum and you hold me up as someone that could harm this community for exercising what the mission of this forum is for, which does not make this forum a community that can not be what it is. But it is much more than that. For if you say that I am harming this community by following the mission of this forum, that could cause a specter to be thought by a subset of readers to stigmatize me as someone that harms the community and cause a shame to be cast over me. A subset of readers could think that what you have posted about me could mean that I am a bad person inwardly, as to my character. This could arouse anti-Semitic feelings in a subset of readers because you focused on what I wrote as something that could cause harm to the community while others are not focused by you for what they write. One of the definitions of anti-Semitism is that the Jew is said to bring harm to the community. It is called, {poisoning the well} used in the 1300s to blame the Jews for the Black Death or Bubonic Plague accusing the Jews of poisoning the wells. That was impossible for the Black Death was cause by a rat flea biting the people. If I am causing harm to this community by posting warnings and that children could be harmed by these drugs, which is in accordance with the mission and rules of this forum, then all readers could cause harm here by abiding by the mission and the rules of the forum, yet you single me out as the one that by following the rules, this forum *can't be*.
