The only wounds people get here are self inflicted

Problem is, it takes some maturity to realize that. Some people get to feeling that others have inflicted wounds on them. It is hard to accept that they have only themselves to blame.

When things get outside of SI, then wounds inflicted can become real. But within, it falls entirely on how one decides to react to what one reads here. That's a choice each of us makes.
