Hi Joanna,

I AM back!

Yeah, I have found great support before, but if it is an environment that tries to restrict the types of thoughts I can think or express, it doesn’t work for me.

Here you are!<br/><br/>In most support groups I have been part of there have been written and unwritten rules about what is appropriate and from which members, and often serious misunderstandings about the meaning of certain words in those rules. Unfortunately, because the groups are presented as unconditionally loving and supportive, I drop my usual wariness and get burnt before I remember that I THINK DIFFERENTLY. YMMV, but it's my experience that gifted people want and need what is offered so badly that they suspend disbelief about being different. The meaning of unconditional love varies with the person who is offering it.<br/><br/>Best,<br/>Joanna Oh good! Here you are!
