I wanted to PM each of you to let you know how sorry I am for my behavior this past week, but that would take too long, and I don't know if you all check your PM's or even have them activated, so I decided to post it up here.
My father always told me it takes a big man to admit when he's wrong, but that's not why I'm doing this. I'm apologizing because I am sincerely sorry for disrespecting the community here. Heather, you are the one that got me thinking about this with your first post in Ian's thread about shutting it down. Thank you, and I'm sorry. Nobody here should ever have to see that kind of nastiness. Many of you probably think that I'm an asshole now, and I'll be honest with you....I am. In real life, I can be your best friend, but I am also an asshole underneath, especially when crossed. I also suffer from severe bouts of depression which only get worse around the holidays, but that is generally controlled by antidepressants. About 3 months ago, my doctor switched me from Prozac to a new antidepressant. It works much better...when I take it. With the Prozac, I could go a week without it and not have much trouble. However, with the new med, a day or two without it sends me into a horrible downward spiral. After my accident a few weeks ago, I was unable to get my prescription refilled, so it's been about a week and a half since I've taken it. I got it filled last night, so things should start looking up soon. THIS IS NOT AN EXCUSE FOR MY BEHAVIOR!! It is merely an explanation. There is no excuse for my actions, and I'm embarrassed and ashamed at them.
My opinion of TC has not changed. I still have a great respect for his knowledge of wheeling and mechanical aptitude, and wouldn't hesitate to take his advice on that subject. I even agree with a lot of what he posts, just not all of it. I have told him this in a PM. I have also told him that I will no longer feud with him in the forums, that if I have a problem with him, I'll take it to PMs. He apparently doesn't feel the same way, and has told me he doesn't care what I say about him in the forums.....so from that I guess it's likely he won't abstain from trying to belittle me in public. That's up to him. As for me, I will try my best to keep from being an asshole anymore in the forums. If you see it happening again, please let me know. If I see it happening, the moderators won't have to worry about chastising me, as I will remove myself from the forums until I can get my head on straight again.
So please accept my humble apologies. I am truly sorry for subjecting you all to the "real" me.
