I didn't spring up from nowhere. lol I've been coming to this chat for 4 years and many people know me. My remarks were not "pushy" but based in actual life experience dealing with mentally ill family members (plural) and I also had an alcoholic father, so I think I know what I am talking about. Joefizz don't be a bully and think before you speak.
The thing is, on this site there are two peeps, the chat peeps and the forum peeps. You have been a member for 4 years but have written virtually no posts. Most of the regular contributors to the forums know each other quite well. Joefizz is one of the good guys. I have no doubt that you know what you're talking about and your input is valued. Consider getting to know us better in the forums. We're not so bad.
