Wendy,
I wanted to write and support your point here about tempering our ardent opinions in ways that will help those suffering best benefit by them. I'm glad you decided to speak up about it, it doesn't hurt to remind everyone about being careful to not appear judgmental or authoritative. I also understand how hard it is to not be zealous in our desire to "enlighten" people about what has worked for us. All we want to do is help each other, we have to be careful not to hurt and/or alienate in the process. Nina

here and be given advice in a way that doesn't
alienate them.  I know it's not my 'website', but I
feel strongly that it's important for people to come
here for guidance and knowledge given in an open
manner.  It's tricky, because the whole nature of this
site is via advice, but the advice has to be presented
in a certain way.
