I am not sure if this is the proper place to post this but I am not sure where else it would fit.

I will probably be leaving MS even though I have not been here for a long time. There are too many posts and too much discussion in chat that praises Oprah for exploiting us for her own aggrandizement. Having her or anyone like her such as Jerry Springer, Maury Povich, etc put our plight on tv isn't helping us at all, its hurting our cause and nobody cares. They praise her for exploiting us. I just can't take it anymore. It has me extremely depressed. I just have to get away from it.

Hi Chuck,

There are hundreds of posts here that don't discuss Oprah-
I've ignored most of the Oprah posts to seek out what is helpful for me and my recovery.

I invite you to do the same.

I appreciate the support. I feel like something is just going to blow up in my face. I was here the other day and I just felt like everything was closing in on me.

well chuck noone is praising her

if someone went to the show seeing and being with 200 male survivors is an experience if it is not helping us or not

it is an experience many have had, and it has brought many men here

The main thing is we wanted to talk with you in Chat we want to be there for you. So come join us sometime.

Missed not having you in chat.

What ever out thought on Ms O

that is not a reason to leave

for one if u take the total posts vs any that have O in them
it is less than .5 %

sorry u were seening a lot of posts with O in them I am not seeing that

and I reply all the time to posts

if you see one again just click out and not read it

and honestly we do not know oprahs intentions
sometimes females do have our best intrests at hand

and sometimes our abuse can cloud the issues at hand

What I wish for you my new friend is pease love and healing

Michael joseph
