I was very touched and greatly surprised to read the many supportive posts regarding my block. I had no intentions of creating such a stir, but am very gratified by your comments. Thank you very, very much!
Dr. Bob has not responded to email, so I am left with questions: Hypothetically, if a person comes to this site who was very distraught (suicidal) over an issue or occurance in his/her life, feeling this was the last (or even first) place he/she could get support (for whatever reason), has a rant to express his/her feelings, waits for a reply of support or encouragement, but instead is met with block for not being politically correct enough in the expression of those feelings, what is the point of the existence of this website? Can we even consider feelings politically correct/incorrect, as your feelings might not agree with my feelings and this could result in someone's feelings getting hurt? Could then depression be considered a politically incorrect disease since we're dealing with the way we feel? Should we discuss being abused here since we could possibly offend the abusers, now that we know we shouldn't offend murderers? At which point does the need for political correctness overcome the need to be human? Who decided political correctness was more important than the display of emotion, no matter how human?
