Sorry for the hostility @Glisten you do not deserve. I apologise, and I know I'm right😎
@Appleblossom I can understand that you are saying what is one person's toxic, might be anothers, 'normal'.
There is nothing wrong with that.

I was concerned about @Glisten comment on your thread. I tried to step into the breech and ameliorate some of the potential damage. I firmly uphold the right for people to be able to express themselves personally on this forum. Especially vulnerable and healing posts!
Otherwise wtf is its use. Scuse my French. Unfortunately some people are overly tied up in their opinions and not careful enough to… leave well enough alone… when something doesn’t resonate with them. They should stick to threads they are comfortable in, if they can’t rise to the challenge of understanding the original poster… imho.
From what I read I can understand your response as being hurt, betrayed cos you hoped it was a safe space. 10 years when I first joined Sane I saw stuff like that all the time. I was horrified. Things have improved but Sane should not casually promise a safe space. It simply cannot be guaranteed. I think what you did was brave. Calling it out. I doubt that poster intended harm, but I was concerned when I first read it.
take care StanD

@StanD I can’t even remember what I posted.
I’m a blunt person and I’m impossible to offend. I forget others aren’t the same.
I’ll email the moderator and ask for my post to be removed.
Would that be better for you?

I am extremely sensitive and have been very low status most of my life @Glisten I am very careful and been called too diplomatic on and off the forum. I also have a swag of quals and care about the efficacy of the mental health field… way beyond my own personal experience and opinions. Do what you feel is right. That is all we can do… just that Hooman Beans have different vulnerabilities and higher values, so respond differently. I have never been able to afford being blunt, so don’t value it. I have seen it do damage, however clarity is a different matter. I just cut my finger doing dinner, glad the kni fe was a bit blunt, otherwise I might have lost some finger. Or maybe I have developed that cutting style cos my kni fe is blunt. Not sure. Too sharp can be a problem too. Not being nambypamby. Just unpacking concepts.
I am inspired that @StanD says she is not damaged. I have admitted that about myself probably too often. Here is too Living Fully without Fear.

Thank goodness for you both @Glisten @Appleblossom (& @TAB ( he hiding under table?)
I actually do not feel damaged @Appleblossom
My actions are wobbly. I not sure where everything is yet.
I understand that my CNS is experiencing effects of long term trauma - like everyone else, here .
I know I am not damaged, becoz I am very clear - maybe first moment - who is Me. I find out I like 'period piece, movies' I love Vegemite.
I love that you express your passion for MH. It encourages me, that, yes - I not accepting of abuses to myself, or to anyone else. I feel most comfortable being 'right fighter's lols
I never have been asked to speak b for.
Like @Glisten say - they not recall saying . We need have compassion for each other as well as, acceptance of environment.
I don't use any social media platforms, asides from here. I will never join FB. I basically think it's the 😈 - I know many ppl resonate, absolutely not me.
So, there!
We kinda the same.
Thankyou beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
You are on payroll 🍎🍏🍺
