Can we please try to keep this to experience, strength & hope?

People come here because they're in pain and they're trying to find solutions. I fail to see how it would be helpful if people were to respond to everyone who posts, "Well, if you'd done THIS then you wouldn't be having this problem, would you?????"

There are many posters on this forum, especially those who are new to recovery, whose life choices trigger others. A little restraint will keep this place from descending into a shrill, self-serving judgment-fest that has no value for anyone.
