For those who have no clue who I am, I was very active on DS, mostly here in the BP forum. Being here gave me a feeling of importance. I became rather popular here, but unfortunately with fans comes the negative critics. People were coming to me for advice, even though I'm not any more a therapist than most on here. I do have a knack for it though, which is why I think I was so good at it. At any rate, it also nearly killed me.
I then went silent. It wasn't that I stopped coming here, it was just that I stopped posting threads. I have certain criteria for my threads, in that I don't like to post questions, I like to post answers. I came to a point where I had nothing new to post.
Something else my time as a backyard therapist on here did was give me a purpose to strive for. I want to become a Psychiatrist. This is a lofty goal, but I'm striving for it. Until I feel like I have something new worth posting, I wont post any new threads. I also had my heart broken in the worst way by some one on here. I don't want to air dirty laundry here or bad mouth her so I'm leaving it at that.
Though you may not see me around much on here, I'll be here. I also refuse to leave this site until I can change my screen name to DrChuggs :) This is an important place to me.
