Phil, I'm sorry to see you go. I only wish I could have gotten to know you better. But do know that your words will be archived. And maybe, just maybe that change will come. If it does, or doesn't I hope that you will change your mind about leaving and we'll see you back one day. I believe we're all thinking about you. Stay safe, ok hun!?!

Phil,
I hope you will maybe visit so we'll know that you are ok. I'm lucky to have been here to get to know you over the years, and you've added so much to PB. Your humor is really a mainstay when things are black, and you've made me laugh when I didn't think that sound would ever emanate from me again.Saying the hard stuff, another hallmark of yours, does PB good, and I appreciate you doing it so consistently even though it feels like a losing battle and you end up paying the price alone. The irony of you being blocked after you've said you're leaving is not lost on me, and lends credence to what you've been saying.
I will miss you greatly, and want you to know how much I support you and all you have done to try to make PB a better place. I will be in touch with you, which is really my only solace.
Shar

And this site is to promote good mental health?
Phil leaves and someone else is afraid they will get blocked if they express their feelings.....I'm self-blocking again....at times I think I can hang here and be supportive to people and then it's like trying to swim upriver........Good luck all..........Pat

phil - just when i was thinking it was ok to partcipate more actively....
I'm saddened belong belief. This site will be considerably diminished on account of your absence.
There are tricks to taking advantage of the benefits of participating on this site without putting your own peace of mind at stake. It's sometimes (lots of the time) a struggle to keep that balance. I'm sorry the balance shifted for you. Please never say never. You've burned no bridges here and your return, even a brief return, will always be welcomed.
This is really horrible.
Please take care

mair,
Fact is, I need this board and the great people here. You too, Dr. Bob(now I had to get a jab in-it's my way of saying you are okay in my book, okay?)
I think the world of you, mair. Your post touched me. It sealed the deal.
In the words of the great 20th century writer...Don Henley(HAHA)"..besides, all my friends are here. Down at the Babble Grill, down at the Babble Grill."
Many people said some nice things about me, I can't leave...nobody in real life says that stuff.
*Under the arm wind passage...pffffft.Thanks for leaving the light on for me, Dr. Bob.
Yours truly,
296.60
Phil

THANKSSOOSHI!!! You were too much fun. I think we'll have lots to talk about.
After 20 med-years, I presented w/ bipolar stuff at my pdocs'. She even awarded me a PTSD medal finally. I earned it and certainly don't want to diminish the seriousness of it.
She recommended 2-4 months off of work(I haven't heard from anyone at work so they may have given me eternity). I thanked her for the note and her and her pdoc husband don't even mind me camping in their yard as long as I quit building campfires. woohoo!
By the way Sooshi, got any marshmallows?Phil

Seeing as I also have Bipolar, have been on meds 20+ years, and definately have marshmallows, I'd say we DO have a lot to talk about! I also have a vacant lot down by Lake Austin (next to my cabin-style house I share w/hubby & kids & dogs & cats & fish & deer & tarantulas....) that you can camp on to your hearts content...big-a** campfires allowed!
