What you described was a reality. And I do understand your comparison. What I have liked about this board is that the majority of Christians that have posted to me from here have been supportive and not pushing a Christian agenda on me. This helps me to not categorize all christians as fundies. But I DO definitely believe that the time and place for doing whatever helps your recovery is only something you can know as an individual.
Trust me (or not), but whenever I have started this conversation on this board it is after reading something that triggers a sore spot(which has come up repeatedly, but not started by me.) in me. The sore spot is NOT about devaluing or discounting SGAs it is about my own recovery, for what that is worth. I wish you well in your recovery. I DO want to be supportive and gain support. But I do not expect to find that in the SGA community, nor would that be reasonable for me to expect. I just was not aware of the gap and the view until coming on line. Now that I have gained understanding in some ways, it is still hard for me to understand what seems to be the categorical rejection of FGAs that are EXERS. Unless they were acting like in the family and attempting to dictate or tell you how to feel or what you should do. I don't think I have done that. And I am glad you have the safety of your board to keep it from being used like that.
I do know what PTSD is. On a clinical and personal level. I wish you well. What I have posted here is to sort out stuff for myself. I certainly carry no title that makes me the chairman of the board, and frankly would never want to be.
