    Wow Beatle I wasnt expecting to see that when I woke up this morning. I have read my post(above) several times to find the line where I told someone not to post on MWO...nope cant see it.I can only see advice where I tell someone not to worry about these things late at night.Nightime makes us more vulnerable to our fears and worries.

    " Let us know tomorrow what happens when you up your dose" -Its worth highlighting cos you obviously missed it.

    If you are not from the "things will look better in the morning" school of thought then thats fine Beatle but its not exactly a radical idea. I dont think the media will be rushing to publish that little sentiment as being groundbreaking and shocking. Most have us have been reared on that thought.I think its true.I wonder why its such a worldwide cliche if its such an outrageous thing to say? I think its kind but whatever..........

      Maybe you should read it one more time?

      If you are tired and feeling scared then I think that its better to leave threads like this for another time.

      Seems clear to me that you told her to not post when she is feeling tired and scared. I just referred to that line. It's in black and white.

      I made no personal assailment and called no one names. I only referred to a specific line in a post.

      And now I suggest we drop this exchange because it is has the potential to degenerate into a personal tit-for-tat "You said that" "I said that" kind of interchange which most of us agree is not constructive.
      Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life... And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

        This was an exchange between Cinders and I .We went on to discuss other things for ages afterwards and at no time did she say " Gee you know what coalfire,I dont think your advice worked for me and I would like to try...xyz instead." If she had then I would have sorted it out. You were not even on line when we were chatting last night. This was an exchange between cinders and me and nothing to do with you. What you are doing inserting yourself into an hours old discussion and whipping up crap like this I have no idea. Thanks for your dubious attempts to act as a referee between Cinders and I but I for one have no wish to avail of your services. I can look after my own relationship with people on MWO. I will do cinders the courtesy of imagining that she can too.

          and I am still tired, so I am going to try to get 2 more hours of sleep.

            But that's exactly the point, you're wrong. If you take baclofen, reach the switch, keep to the correct maintenance dose and then you're not in remission, it's not a reduction in degree, it's a cure. This is a large part of the problem on the med threads these days; people for whom baclofen has not worked, or who can not reach the switch due to SEs, or who have not kept to the maintenance dose blame baclofen and assume it doesn't work. It does. It's not remission in my case. It's a cure.

            I do hope no one feels the need to report me to the forum moderator again for disagreeing with you this time. Not conducive to a healthy discussion is it Zenstyle?

              This was the last post you made on this thread, on this public forum, before I wrote my post.

              Then this is your response after my response:

              This has happened before, and as I said then, I think there is no place on this public forum for people to have back-room eonversations and then chastise someone for picking up on a public thread because they weren't privy to the behind-the-scenes interchanges.
              Public is public and private is private. For all those that were not privy to your chat, my comments made sense. And I still don't understand what this forum is worth if that's the way it is to continue.

              .
              I had hoped we were finished with personal accosts and belittling people here. I have never made a personal accost or sarcastically told someone I didn't want their input. I have only referred exactly to what a person has written and I don't name names or say nasty things. I had hoped those days were over.

              And I did ask that we try to avoid degenerating into name calling and nastiness, but instead, it seems to have gone that way, and further, with private conversations given as the reason to deride a poster.

              I don't care to participate in such conversations. They sadden and vex me, and reinforce the unfortunate change in this forum's tone from positive discussion to personal name calling.

                There were no private conversations between Cinders and I. I could go on but I have lost interest. Whatever Beatle. Bye.

                  Then I am very confused I don't undersatnd this. Does it mean I was supposed be following your chats all the time on line? And if I wasn't, I should not answer to something you posted on a public forum because I hadn't followed chat and all that happened there?

                  Because on this thread, you did tell Cinid to not post when she was tired and scared, in black and white. That was the last post I saw. I was not on the chats last night nor were a number of other posters, I would surmise, and certainly not people who come onto this thread afterwards. I'm sincerely puzzled and disturbed by this... does this mean that we cannot comment on posts in threads if we do not also follow chat?

                  I am not being nasty. I am not making personal assaults. I am not even naming names, and I am certainly not telling anyone to go away, or dismissing them.

                  I'm simply asking a legitimate question.

                  But I cannot bear to be repeatedly personally assaulted, unfairly treated and insulted any more, nor can I bear to see so many others being personally assaulted, unfairly treated and insulted on these threads anymore.

                  Sadly, I see that many of my forum colleagues have made this decision already. I see that it is the only one for me, but I will miss MWO dearly. The old MWO.

                      In addiction, suppression of symptoms should suppress the disease altogether since addiction is, as he observed, a "symptom-driven disease". Of all "anticraving medications used in animals, only one - baclofen - has the unique property of suppressing the motivation to consume cocaine, heroin, alcohol, nicotine and d-amphetamine"
