I’m a total hypocrite about this, but as many have pointed out, I can easily be an edge case. But if you read my comment from 7 years ago, you can see roughly the level of justification I was using and denial I was in.
But not everyone is me, and it’s possible in the process of accepting I’m not particularly special, that I’ve begun thinking we are all in fact the same and will go down the same path with this stuff.
I’ve talked in length in this thread mainly because it’s been a defining thing in my life. I know how it started, ended and have thought carefully about every juncture where things could have been changed (tapering down, etc).
