I was a kid who grew up in a bar. It was the family business, owned by my parents. The bar was attached to the house and I lived there from birth to the time I left for college.
Now, decades later, I feel depressed and unhappy. I feel unsatisfied with my career and most of my social relationships. To use a figure of speech, my life is going nowhere. Looking back, I don't think ...

Most of you are probably familiar with the concept of cognitive distortions - if not, and you're struggling in any way with mental health, they can be a VALUABLE weapon in your fight for recovery.

There have been a lot of studies how people with mental illness are attracted to other who have mental illness.

....and condescending. I've been relatively active on various other forums that include tennis, audio, photography, cycling, guitar, dogs, cats, automobiles, etc and the participants have always been extremely helpful, courteous and nice. I always end my questions or requests with "Thank you very much in advance!"
However, and very interestingly, I've been on two different legal forums and the replies are ALWAYS condescending, often downright vicious.
I have some theories, but I'd like to hear ...
