Hi SLS,
Yes, it was a fascitious, silly joke. A jab at Phil.
As far as me staying here to "help develop my social and communications skills," I dont have the severe social and communications skills some here seem to have. I am of the belief that to develop and maintain social and communications skills, the best approach is to GET OFF the Internet as much as possible. The Internet is isolating yourself, even if you are posting to anonymous folks on the WWW such as psychobabble.
I interact with people just fine offline and as you can tell, I dont post much on these boards anymore. And I am better for it.
I dont need your signature. I'd forget about it if I were you. I thought I'd give the "patients" the chance to sign it first, before I take it other places, to other kinds of people. Maybe I will get the signatures I need, maybe I wont. Frankly, it wont make a big deal to me one way or another. Although it would be kinda cool to hit the 25,000 mark.
Merry Christmas,
Eric AKA LostBoyinNC

You may discover that people here support each other, despite occasional adversarial interactions. By continuing to post here regularly, I have managed to improve my communication and socialization skills. I feel that this place has helped facilitate my continued maturation and self-improvement. Lessons are not always easy or quick to learn, but I find that it is worth doing the work to enhance my emotional stability.

If you do stay, you might find yourself feeling like an outsider at first. You may need to allow some time to become oriented and make adjustments - just like with any other group you interact with for the first time.
