Hi PsychCentral Community,
Truth is the most valuable commodity in the world, and yet, so many people in positions of power have a vested interest in keeping it under wraps. But... Some will risk everything to expose truth in hopes to make the world a better place. Some are subject to smear campaigns and slandered as horrible monsters. Some are never recognized or acknowledged. Some are silenced and locked away. Some are abused with impunity. Some commit suicide. Some are murdered. We can refer to these beautiful rarities as, "Heroes." And we need them more than ever. If granted an opportunity to meet one of our Heroes, what might you say to them? If they become weary or disillusioned, how might you inspire them to continue on their quest to make the world a better place? Thanks, HD7970ghz __________________ "stand for those who are forgotten - sacrifice for those who forget" "roller coasters not only go up and down - they also go in circles" "the point of therapy - is to get out of therapy" "don't put all your eggs - in one basket" "promote pleasure - prevent pain" "with change - comes loss" |

I see everyone on this PC forum as heroes. Everyone here is brave enough to share here. Everyone here is brave enough to keep on trying. Everyone here is brave enough to share when they don't feel like trying. Everyone is a hero when someone else can relate to what they have shared, even if they aren't able to comment or say anything in return. I have much to learn from everyone here.
And for my fellow veteran brothers and sisters, thank you for your service to our country and your heroic deeds. Thank you for extending your heroism to here. I may be called a "veteran," but I wasn't in that long and didn't deploy like most of you have. I never served in combat. Nevertheless, I relate to our common training in basic - whichever branch we served - and I have family members who were in various branches of service and friends continuing to serve (now as officers, but started out as enlisted over 20 years ago) - all of which are also my heroes who have gone to places I was not brave enough or fit enough to go to (I salute them). What makes you all really brave here is being on this PC forum and helping all the rest of us - veterans and non-veterans - feel not so alone. Thank you for your sharing and listening ears, and your continued service. Thank you administrators, moderators, mental health professionals, and DocJohn for all of your heroic deeds in hearing many traumatic and hard stories, being strong enough to work with us, and even hearing our laments about our past (or present) bad experiences with therapy. I'm sure hearing some of this might not be easy for you, but your courage in working with us is heroic in my eyes. Thank you for not giving up and for providing a wonderful platform for us to communicate and finally be free to share our thoughts - some of which might be too scary for us to disclose in real life. Thank you for all of your services! Thank you @HD7970GHZ for posting this. You are a hero in my eyes, too - especially for posting this. |

As above. Every single person on PC is a hero. Thank you to every single one of you. You help me go on, even when I don't want to.

I am terrible at advocating for myself but if I see someone else wronged, I am quick to make a confrontation. I also have always made the effort to do what is the right thing and be a voice for the underdog, downtrodden, as well as pointing out what is terribly wrong. Yeah, call me a whistle-blower. Doing so has come at great cost repeatedly. For instance it meant the ruination of my military career doing the right thing. Yet I will continue to do it. I have a very extreme sense of right and wrong. If I witness or learn of wrong happening I am going to do something about it.
