Yep. I think you're great. x

I have lots of respect for you too =)

You've definately got great respect from me. And whenever I see your posts I feel nothing but confirmation for that. You are brilliant really.

Thank you so much, it means a lot to me.

When I show vulnerability... and when I feel hurt, and when I try to protect myself... I can get afraid people no longer respect me, because of my past.

Now I know I am new here, but I believe absolutely everyone deserves love and respect.
I know I don't know you v. well yet, but I respect for you being you, and for having the tenacity to reach out to people when you really need to.

Take care and I send you loads of squishies.

I certainly respect you.
I think it's important to realise that people can be aware of your vulnerability and still have the greatest of respect for you. In some ways it probably commands more respect as to be fragile yet still be so empathic and to give so much support to others shows that you are a very caring person. Your advice and insight into other's situations has always struck me as very helpful and intelligent.

I definately respect you, I think you are intelligent, strong, kind and very courageous

I Respect you. I think you are an incredibly strong woman who shows a great deal of insight in the support you give to others. *cuddles*

I think you are utterly awe inspiring! I completely respect you. You are an incredible women x x

Thank you so so much everyone.

I'm sensitive to feeling invalidated more than the 'average' person, and this is much more of a trigger to me than any amount of what others might see as 'triggering'. Does that make sense?

I respect you and have grown to do so more lately because of your interactions/support of much younger members. Often, these younger members are angry and act out and aren't able to verbalise their feelings and I have seen quite a few examples recently where you have been able to acknowledge their intense feelings yet help them understand why it is they feel like it, what makes them so upset and thereby allowing others to provide support also.

I think you are incredibly wise and insightful hun!

I have a lot of respect for you. I read your advice around the boards and admire the way you always sound so empathetic and are able to see what others are feeling so accurately.

Please don't put yourself down.

I really value your opinion and you have always posted lovely, helpful answers.

Thank you so so much everyone. This really means so so much to me.

Exactly this. I respect you.

Thank you. :)
