Orrrr it keeps you from overloading.

It's like if you severely injured your legs and have been bedridden for months. You can't just get up and start running marathons, you'll hurt yourself again. You have to take it slowly and taper things up, getting plenty of rest.

"Throw the baby in the water, see if it can swim" is not a viable strategy in all areas.

[nyxelestia]

Interestingly enough, if you throw a baby into water within the first month or so of life, it'll start swimming on its own. After that period, though, the swimming instincts are gone, and kids have to be taught. The older someone is when they start to swim, the harder it usually is for them to learn.

There is a big difference between giving someone a place to rest their injured legs in the process of recovery, and constantly getting things for them when they put their feet up so they never have to put their feet back down again. Safe spaces start out trying to be the former, but increasingly they end up turning into the latter.

So the answer is no safe spaces for anyone ever? Because that's what most people here seem to be suggesting.

[nyxelestia]

You and I must be reading different threads, because I've been seeing mostly suggestions on how to change safe spaces or to use them less, not how to get rid of them.

Actually, it's not up to the safe space to adjust to the needs of the individual - THAT'S coddling. Everyone has to work out for themselves how to interact with these spaces in a way that's healthy and right for them, and it's them and their therapist's job to figure out that way, not tumblr's or LJ's.
