Thanks for writing this. It doesn't seem to be something I can work with at the moment-- my self-attacks are too hair-triggered-- but it seems generally true and sensible. I'm surprised it hasn't gotten more upvotes.

Thanks for the thank you! This seems to be a polarizing post - I've been watching the number go up and down a fair bit as the comments have roled in - it has had at least 7 down/9 up votes that I'm aware of, plus probably a fair bit of fluctuation that I'm not aware of, landing it at +2 at this point.

I've seen people describe LW as a frightening place, but the seeing the wall you ran up against in some of the early comments is the first time that complaint has made sense to me.
