i'm not trying to fight or anything... i... have never been to a reunion in my life. maybe that is it. i have some fond memories of chat, and i'd be open to chatting more if others were up to it, too. but i'm not so keen on reminiscing.
i guess different people have different views on the 'good old days'. i mostly remember... taking to writing as a refuge because for an awful lot of the time i didn't have a therapist. when i did get one... i posted a little... but i was blocked for most of that. so... i didn't get from the psychology board whatever a lot of others did, i guess.
i took to writing as a refuge, i remember. because on psychology... i tended to feel a lot of... anger and resentment. and deprivation. i... yeah.
> You have good reason to know that I'm not in favor of exclusion. Bob isn't a Babbler, you know. He doesn't reveal vulnerabilities to us. He doesn't share his deepest feelings with us. I didn't think it would be so exclusionary to ask for time without him as well as welcoming him when he was there.he also... isn't allowed to be - is he? i remember that has come up as an issue over time (one of the many)... what people would prefer with respect to his involvement. some people want more involvement... tell us what you really think Dr Bob... and then some other people (or sometimes those same people want less involvement... Jumping all over him when he does express himself.
I think life mostly consists in rocks and hard places...

> Maybe you could arrange the reunion. Because it's obviously not working out for me to do it.
your doing your thing doesn't prevent me doing mine. so... 'tis cool. i'd like to chat to you sometime more informally...
