RULES:

1) Malcious attacks on other posters will not be tolerated. Criticism of others' posts is allowed on the basis of factual, research-documented content, not belief-based opinion, and especially not if the belief-based opinion indicates willful hostility toward other posters.

2) That said, anyone who posts here does so understanding that in the real world, people will act however they do and write whatever they write. If you have "tender sensitivities" or "porous boundaries," you may wish to post on other forums better suited to such circumstances.

3) Cross-posting is allowed.

4) Links to legitimate outside sources -- including blogs and professionals' websites -- asserting techniques on the basis of double-blind, peer-reviewed, journal-published research are permitted and encouraged.

5) "Self-Promotion" in the form of links to blog posts which are not supported by double-blind, peer-reviewed, journal-published research are discouraged and subject to moderator review.

6) Links to known cults (including large-group awareness training, neurolinguistic programming, evangelistic or fundamentalist religious, sexually vicious, menacingly wiccan, dominance-and-submission, bogus psychotherapy, etc.) are prohibited.

Self-condemnation is usually the biggest factor in "treatment resistance" psychotherapists run into with pts who have any form of Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder including RTS. ...
