I thought I would add my comments to your increase/decrease posting notes.
> *Increased posting when I feel better [mostly to support others]
Same for me.
> *Decreased posting when I start to feel poorly, unless I need more specific info on meds, in which case I'll drop a line on /psychobabble
Same for me.
> *Increased posting when I notice that the "feeling poorly" is leading to lack of good judgement. The exercise of supporting others helps snap me back into "good judgment" shape
Nope. Increased posting while experiencing poor judgement for me is usually indicative of a period of manic behaviour. Usually followed by a "please be civil" and a withdrawal by me from the boards if I'm feeling slightly sensible, or I go straight to further infractions. A horrible time for me.
> *Increased posting when I find a way of talking about myself in some dry clinical term
Nope, never happened. I'm nowhere near clinical. Always episodic in my posting.>
> *Decreased posting when I find that I'm struggling with T-me relationship.
I hardly ever post on this board. Can't really comment on that relationship except to say that I don't actively cultivate one.
> *Increased posting when T and Me are clicking and insights are being made
Yes, I do this.
> *Increased posting when I feel incipient crisis
Sometimes I do this, but not recently. (Haven't felt safe enough at babble?)
> *Decreased posting when I feel in the midst of crisis.
Most definitely.
> *Trick posting when I'm in the midst of crisis but don't want babblefriends to know about it. I'll get all "empirical on their *sses" retreat to the realm of science and away from feelings and uncertainties
I send babblemails or emails when I'm in distress. It's not the smartest thing for me to do. I should be posting and reaching out further/farther for help instead of putting pressure on a few people. I rarely if ever make phone calls and when in crisis will not answer the phone, so babble is it for me, really.Thanks again, Llurpsie. I also responded on the main medication board.
