Hello dudes,
The thing about personal messages is, they're lower priority for me than forum mails and a lot of other things, and I hardly ever get to catch up with 'em.

Here's why: If we talk privately, only you and I learn. It's so easy to join the site with a nickname and discuss issues on the forum, I figured anyone who is in urgent need of an answer will do that. For those who have genuine chronic embarrassment or feel an urge to privately confess something, sorry you'll have to wait. -Consider it patience practice.

Finally, could those few who private-message me regarding therapy for opportunities to moan about their spouses, parents or offspring please remember that a biopsychologist is not the same thing as a psychotherapist. I recommend you find a friendly local bar steward (whose job it is to listen to our crap and serve us drinks, all night if necessary, at much lower cost than a therapist and often with better results.)  :  )

Best,
AR
