Needless to say, there is no need to actually read any of Ravi's screeds because it's all there in the Subject line, but it's great when someone reacts to one with humor. Lord knows one needs a little humor when the person whose mental health we were all concerned enough about a few months ago to try to intervene and get him to seek treatment is up at 4:00 AM every morning saying that someone *else* is crazy. :-) Let's hear it for line on stone, and holding grudges. If it weren't for grudges, some posters on FFL would have nothing to say.

[FairfieldLife] Re: A checklist of Turq's psychological traits, cry for help
I have no idea whether Turquoise B has a personality disorder, but he certainly expresses a lot of anger and aggression toward others. He loves to mock and goad and bully and ridicule other people. In my experience this kind of behavior is an attempt, whether conscious or not, to compensate for some personal unhappiness, perhaps involving feelings of inadequacy or failure. The lashing out at others in an electronic forum provides him with some temporary relief in a way that avoids having to deal with the painfulness of the underlying condition, which may be beyond repair. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, authfriend jstein@... wrote: --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Sal Sunshine salsunshine@ wrote: On Mar 2, 2011, at 11:49 AM, turquoiseb wrote: --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, wayback71 wayback71@ wrote: Ravi, I respectfully disagree with your diagnosis of Barry.
