I appreciate all that you have done here in regards to changing minds and raising awareness about mental health issues. This place is more welcoming to the mentally ill than it ever was thanks in part to what you have done here. And people take that stuff from the Web out into reality. What you have done here may go well beyond the message board.

I will always have a great deal of respect for you.

I saw the thread you posted earlier today and I posted in it as well. To those who know you, I think it was obvious where you were going with it. Elocs didn't know where you were coming from. When you tried to explain he or she acted as if he or she hadn't understood what you said and stayed on the path of indignation.

You know what really sucks about all that? You and Elocs are actually on the same side. You were on the same team fighting each other for the rebound. I tried to yell "Same!" but I guess you guys didn't hear me over all the noise.
