I can’t see such comments either! I thought it was because I’m so inactive here nowadays and I’ve lost my security clearance :grin:

Yeah, that was me :see_no_evil_monkey:
I can’t stand this kind of arrogant, paternalistic, winner-looser dichotomy. Not healthy for my mental health so I crashed the mental health thread :exploding_head::wink::grin:

I have learned that those reactions of mine that are like yours are truly effectively handled by flagging the post for attention by the moderators. But the first, and the harder, step for me is to examine my reaction, to try to understand or at least name the fear that is stirred up in me.

However you handle these situations, I will say, is right for you at the time. And that should include how you take care of yourself following your reaction. Getting consigned to the derailment void isn’t necessarily a bad thing. But having that aftertaste of anger and indignation, for me, can ruin my morning at least, if not my day.

I was in the derailment void in real life earlier for about 1 hour.. I had to examine my own actions and reactions and that really is the hardest part. It almost cost me my whole day but I took immediate action instead of spending all day obsessing and re playing things in my head @SinceIAwoke

I like the part you said about it naming the fear. That is really true and what it does!

PS: I went to the derailment void in real life with a great clips employee around 230pm.. it happens.. I had to examine myself even though I was right

HALT comes to mind. That really helps when it feels like the walls are caving or just in the middle of some bs.. The basics are so important and speaking for myself I forget about them a lot
