Here's the thing... I've been in similar groups like that. After Faye's sharing, pretty much everyone is likely going to be acting like Arthur is. Or nodding in agreement and understanding. That's the good thing about groups like that. Everyone there (unless they are there for support.. Like Abyssinia) has been through similar things. They know the pain and what can drive people to those ends. Dismissal and snark really aren't things you see a lot of in support groups, except in cases where someone is court mandated to be there against their will.

I know you're right, but I'm worried Faye will take their nodding, their legitimate compassion, and interpret it as condescension. I might, were I in her situation, and I see a lot of myself in Faye.
Is it cold in here?:
Anyone else impressed by how well the nonverbal components worked? You could blank out the dialog bubbles and the strip would still communicate what Faye was saying.

Nothing like a little self truth to get things started

For a moment I though a punchline wasn't setup properly. Like he was supposed to go 'Well if you change your mind you're..' *rant* '..Welcome'.
Then I realized I was dumb and he was welcoming her to the group.
