Popular Post obtuse Posted October 6, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted October 6, 2016 (edited) Today marks 10 years since i joined SAB, and i just want to say a very big thank you to the SAB community. Not only has it served as a great source of information, of community, but also of friendship, and love. There are a couple of people i miss, and i only wish i could i could tell them how much. i joined as I was entering a change in my life, and this community has over the years provided inspiration and support and also on occasion a respectful place to air my dissatisfaction with life during various transitions. It served as part of the inspiration to drop my career and begin again with something i feel passionate about. life continues to have its ups and downs. particularly lately. and without the support and love of the people i have met and become close with over the years through this community i suspect thing would be much more challenging than they are. This is a community to be proud of, and id especially like to thank Torsten, for the perseverance and dedication in keeping it going and also covering costs, i am personally aware of the challenges it poses. Thank you SAB. you are an amazing community, and i am grateful for meeting so many amazing like-minded individuals. And grateful for letting me know i'm not so unusual, kooky, or alone in this world out of control. much love <3 Edited October 6, 2016 by obtuse 25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niggles Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Happy anniversary! I can relate to your sentiments. Without SAB I don't know where I would be. I imagine I would be working a job Ihate chainsmoking my way to an early grave. All the best I hope I see you somewhere soon! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micromegas Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Nice one! I passed the decade mark a few months ago myself. I didn't realise the forum kept a history of every post ever made. It's really remarkable to look back over the years. Also definitely a repository of some fairly esoteric knowledge. In fact apparently I sent you some cactus seeds in Feb 2009: " All I ask is that in a few years you send a couple of the seedlings back to me" How'd they turn out! Haha. All the best for the next 10! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love you Ob, know how you feel. Was a gamechanger for me too, and I suspect for a few others as well. When T first spoke about starting it I gave it six months til SAB was shut down. I love being wrong sometimes :D As a result of serious drug education and discussion I find I take a startlingly large amount of less actual drugs- like about 99.9%, and have furthered my education and professional development. Back in the early days not a few of us went on to study science or continue other studies inspired by what we learned here. A side effect I had not considered at all. Whoda thunk? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
