[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Damn. I can’t believe you just wrote this long public post about your friend’s struggle with depression. Yeah, yeah. It’s anonymous. But STILL. [/quote]

This! Op, pls get it taken down[/quote]

Time for you both to take a serious chill pill. We are not in the DC area, far out of state. I was born n MD and still have roots there but have moved away. Some people are so uptight!

I’m not one of those PPs. You need to do some introspection as to why you feel like you’re entitled to share details of someone’s personal struggle like this, even when faced with reasons why it’s in advisable. It’s not just that this individual might find out. It’s that you’re sharing somebody the details of somebody’s intensely private struggle, which doesn’t involve you in the least, to dissect for no discernible good. You totally lack compassion and if you were my friend I would not share my mental health struggles with you, even though I’m generally pretty open about them. [/quote]

Yes...it's not that someone will read your post and think "hey that's Barb!" It's the fact that you thought it was okay to share her story on an open anonymous board and dive into her story without her knowledge or consent. OP, I agree with your message that "no one knows the battle each person is facing" but you could have posted about that in a more sensitive and less intrusive way.[/quote]

+1, this whole post was really poorly thought out. FWIW, I’m on the west coast and read and post regularly. I think there are many others like me.
