greetings!
Hi Everyone! I've been listening to the podcast for a while and finally decided to take the plunge into the forum. Ok so am I the only one that looks at the posts and gets sad when people get zero replies? I feel like I want to click on all of them and just say "hey hang in there, you're not alone" on every single post! Hope I don't offend anyone, I have a very dark sense of humor. Then again, you probably wouldn't like the podcast if you didn't also!

Re: greetings!
Hi Huge Tracts of Land (awesome handle, BTW. That movie makes me so happy!)
You're definitely not alone in feeling that way re: the 0 reply thing. I also have the flip side of that, where I notice how many encouraging posts a single user has posted and I'm like, "wow, I need to engage more." So, yay! Connection! Engagement! Darkness and lovable weirdos! (I use "weirdo" as a term of endearment, I identify as 100% weirdo.)
I see by your signature that we might have some crossover issues - my mother is deceased, and never had a solid diagnosis, but I'm fairly certain she was cluster B/BPD. I'm totally available to trade stories if you'd like!
all the very best,
Verne

Re: greetings!
Hi Verne!
Thanks for the warm welcome! Yeah the Holy Grail is one of those movies that gets better every time you watch it. So should I offer condolences or congratulations that your mom has ceased to be? (see what I did there? )
