For a while I have tried to find a thread I had started when I joined the forum that could be a "home" thread for me.
Being busy about the forum has been a coping style, where I can acknowledge all my different life experiences that had been silenced. Possibly do some good and prevent things from getting worse. Like the little boy with the finger in the dyke.
Feeling fragile
Needing Nurture

I'm so sorry to hear how deeply this incident has impacted you @Bunniekins, it is certainly never our intention to worsen anyone's distress.
Without knowing any context for your situation, there are a number of reasons your post may have been removed and I can understand that to be a difficult thing to see when you're already feeling distressed. If you'd like to talk about it further, you can flick us an email (team@saneforums.org) and I'll help you figure out why it may have been removed and we can work together to draft a new post if you'd like to chat with the other forumites about it. You can also email us and request a conversation with one of our community managers if that would feel better/safer for you.
@Appleblossom I'm hearing that you are feeling pretty uneasy and unimpressed by the guidelines posted yesterday re: talking about suicide, is that right? You're also very welcome to email us and address it to Daisydreamer, or if you like you can send us some feedback with this form. To be 100% transparent I'm not actually sure who that form goes to (i.e. to the community managers or someone else) but we do always want to hear about how our members feel about their experiences on the forums. If you do want to provide feedback but want to remain anonymous you're absolutely welcome to, however it may make it harder if you wish to receive a response.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

So Sorry to hear about your shaking hands @Bunniekins
I saw a lot of it during my 20s and 30s. My sis had it, the mother of my step child still has it and an uncle by marriage. It scared me off meds a lot. If they could only find other ways of supporting you and reducing the troublesome meds. I do know some people can recover and have the extra pyramidal problems reduce.. Being confronted by your own shaking hands will keep issues in mind and make it more difficult to distract and do healing things.

@JynxI am too upset to talk to be honest. I feel like I am being singled out as many of my posts have been deleted. Typing is so hard for me these days.

@Jynx Thanks for writing to me.
I wish they had more music therapy in the hospital, clinical and community settings, but in their wisdom, they have decided to block such things...not support it ... maybe next century.
@Bunniekins I wish you had been able to boogie a bit and release energy that way rather than endless blood tests and meds ...

I am terrified my son will suffer with shakey hands ... no good for piano. It ties my insides in knots.
