Excellent point.  I guess we all want confirmation and support even if it's wrong because we always feel better in a crowd that believes the same as we do.  That's why as good answer-ers we need to be honest in most cases.  Our honesty may hurt at first, but we may really help someone in the long run.  MY OPINION good question!

You're scaring some here. Your not afraid. They were hoping they can get to you with their remarks (have you see the post someone wrote-chicken hoping to intimidate -and the answers are mostly in your favor). \n Your a strong women don't let them push you down.\n And yes we have many problems-that some do not want to face. The truth hurts in this case. \n I want to take care of those here first and than reach out if I can. We can not (not will not) do both. Choices must be made. Even if feelings get hurt.\n Close that door is right.\n\nPlease speak out and whenever you feel like it-you have many supporters. And I like your Courage (so many do). Wish our government would take a lesson from you and quit worrying whats proper and who will call them names.\n\nAnd some are using that you hate-I do not get that from you. Just that your tired of stepping around issues. And sometimes like a child no one listens unless you get a bit stronger and sometimes you must yell-children don't always listen until you do . See you Soon I hope on post -I'm not here a lot but you got my attention a few times.

You shouldn't be scared... although it's no small matter. Just try to live your life to it's fullest, and make sure you tell loved ones what they mean to you.\ntruthfully, probably everyone has a mental disorder, diagnosed or not. we're in a pretty screwed up world, and we're pretty screwed up people.

Allow me to answer your question with a question.\n\nIf ignorance is bliss, why aren't there more happy people?\n\nSmile, keep 'em guessing.

I would rather be respected by people that way people are not afraid of you and they would be willing to talk to you and share problems. If you are feared you are alone, people stay away from you and would never take your advice even if you gave it.

To some point of your question, I agree. I don't like others attemping to force thier beliefs on me. But, just listen anyway.They mean well, but do not realize what they are doing. But from a standpoint of their beliefs, they are doing what they think is right. Just grin and bear it.

Good idea.  People need to be educated and to reduce their fears and prejudice.  It is important for people to learn the truth about other people and their situations.

People like answers, not questions.  Answers make sense of something unstable and bring order to that instability.  If you question something, you are doing so for your own sake, but at the same time you are necessarily (though probably not intentionally) challenging someone else's sense of stability/security (since that other person would see no reason for his/her belief system to be questioned).  You're not meaning to hurt anybody else, but it's just that too many people cannot easily face a disturbance to their beliefs; they view the one who asks the question as the problem.

Then go ahead, and clarify the facts, why are you so afraid?

I try and live my life in such a way that I can say that.  Don't a lot of people? As a parent I try and ask myself those kinds of questions frequently to make sure I am teaching what I want to teach to my child.  Over the years I have found it's better for my own mental health to give up the things I had to lie about.  My husband does say I am fearless - it's just that I don't see the point in using up my energy being scared.

I'd tell. A lot of people are afraid to be the first to say it. I'm not and I did and I'm so glad I did.

Um....I am almost afraid to ask but......why?

That is a good question.  People are far too interested in their own opinion to tolerate other opinions if they don't happen to share them. That is too bad and I don't know of a way to counter it.  I guess I should lead by example.  That is all that I can do.

I welcome questions.  They make me think.  Thinking helps me to grow.  Sometimes I have even discovered that I could be *gulp*      wrong...fortunately, not often *whew*.\n\nI love a challenge.  So far, no question or challenge has weakened my faith in God.  If anything, it has grown stronger.  And that can only be a good thing.\n\nNever underestimate the power of faith, my dear.  Faith in the hands of a good person is awesome.  \n\nIn the hands of an evil person it is downright frightening!!\n\n:)
