Revealing too much?

Posted by Deneb on July 28, 2005, at 22:53:12

Hi people

I'm afraid that maybe I've revealed too much of myself here over the past few months. I mean, I tell you guys stuff I don't have time to tell my p-doc...so in a way you guys know more about me than my p-doc. This means that whoever reads all my posts will begin to really know and perhaps understand *me*. I'm not sure what this means, but it is a little scary for me. Actually, right now, I'm a little paranoid about Dr. Bob reading almost every post. It is freaking me out. I never know what he is thinking. I don't know if he notices me, what if he does? Eeekk, what if he thinks, "Geez, Deneb sure is a freak!" Aaahhh!

What if he is slowly beginning to know me like other people? It's like he's spying on me (not that I'm accusing him of spying). What the heck is with this always thinking about Dr. Bob anyways? Don't worry, I'm not obsessed or anything. Aaahh! I'm such a freak! Can I keep anything from you guys? :-)

I really love the anonymity here. I like the idea of telling people how f*cked up I really think I am without worrying about it too much. Somehow I still hold back. I find your honesty quite refreshing. I don't think Dr. Bob thinks you're a freak, because... well I don't. I doubt Dr. Bob really reads every post. You're a lovely hamster-loving human being!

hi Deneb,
I think it's cool that you share so much of yourself here. I've enjoyed getting to know you! :) YOu're not a freak, and hopefully Dr. Bob doesn't think that of you or me or anyone else. I kind of think he doesn't, though. He's so tolerant of ALL kinds of people and behavior. Very little seems to faze him. So I highly doubt he thinks that of you!

I never know what Dr. B is thinking either, or it's rare anyway. Sometimes he posts responses to questions about blocks and why he did/did not block or PBC someone, so there are few teensy insights there.

I think he reads most of the posts when he's on the boards. But that's a lot of posts, isn't it? I mean, with my life/job/etc I try to read lots of posts on admin, social and psych - and I can't keep up! So how does he do it with ALL the boards? Maybe Dinah has more insight into this since she's a deputy here. :)

I think Dr. Bob is intriguing b/c he's an unknown quantity - he doesn't share much of himself, so we all want more. At least, that's the way I feel and see it. I'm not sure if you agree.

Keep writing your posts! They're fun and interesting. :)

Yeah Deneb, if I were you I'd worry about you, because I'm me and I worry about me. Lots of us are pretty worrying but we're kind of amazing too, a bit of a mixed bag. And real nice to each other. I dunno, maybe this is really silly.
