Tatsy, i might well be a person who you saw share her experience and figured i said you cannot do it with your own power, when i shared my experience.
to which i will say that i have no opinion on what YOU can or cannot do, and that i shared my own experience because you specifically asked for it.
i don’t volunteer it here much because of the restraints imposed on this forum.
which are likely the reason you put your thread here, i figure
and Sohard, out of all your points i would like to address just one that jumped out at me: the concept of pushing someone towards “what has worked before”. in all good conscience i cannot “push”someone towards a method that ultimately didn’t help them accomplish what they set out to do. but this is a can of worms, and not the thread to do that in, i think.
we might add that conversation to the thread Obladi started re support for folks who have relapsed?
